<p>I’d say Bucknell and Muhlenberg look good for you. If you get into just those two you’d have two nice choices. Some of the others are a long shot for everyone who applies just because of the sheer numbers.</p>

<p>Unfortunately Im not too familiar with a lot of the schools you have listed. The ones I do from your list are really competitive. Duke’s bio program is really up there so I would have to say that its a high match to a low reach. However I hear Duke’s admission process isnt just number crunching and your stats seem to fall in line with that type of process. UPenn is a reach for everyone so I would say its a medium to high reach for you. As for princeton I am of the impression that after a certain level everyone as an equally small chance for acceptance so I would leave that to fate. Your stats are really good! congradulations!! Chance me back please!</p>
