Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hello everyone =] I'm only a sophomore but my dream is to attend Northeastern University in boston for nursing. What are my chances for admission so far?</p>

<p>GPA- 3.7
*Haven't taken SATs and school won't give out class rank but my PSAT to SAT score wasn't very good, only like a 1700 but I didn't study at all so I know I can get a better real SAT score.</p>

<p>I've taken only honors classes and next year I'll be talking two AP classes and the rest honors</p>

<p>Extracurriculars/awards:
-Lifeguard
- Group and Private Swimming Lesson Instructor
-color guard/marching band
-private oboe lessons
-oboe soloist in band since freshman year
-school and club swim team
-medical scholar's club
-biology olympiad
-involved with a local science symposium
-every year since middle school i've been a medalist in district and national level spanish contests
-i'm certified in CPR/AED, first aid, blood borne pathogens training, and lifesaving
-I have a GIEP for having a high IQ and I'm in my school's academically gifted program, currently completing an independent research project on stem cell medical therapies that will appear on a college transcript as a course I taught myself
-I recieved a full scholarship from the science symposium to attend the national youth leadership forum on medicine</p>

<p>In my essay I'm going to write about my struggle with living with a chronic rheumatic disease and being in chronic pain and how I want to go into the medical field to help other kids with medical conditions and be an empathetic figure who can show them that even if you're sick you can still accomplish whatever you put you mind too.</p>

<p>Also, if you have any ideas of how I can improve my chances of acceptance please share! Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>You might have a great shot at Fordham but NEU is a different beast. You’re still interested in NEU?</p>

<p>NorthEastern U is a safety considering your ECs.</p>

<p>If you can get your SAT scores up to a 1900-2000, you’ll have a good shot! Right now with a score of 1700, you don’t have a good chance but good news is you have a lot of time to study!
