<p>Hi, I am a new user here and this is my first time posting. Please help "critique" my chances of getting into UNC Chapel Hill or NC State. I tried to ask in Yahoo Answers, but the users there spam my post and give me unhelpful answers. I hope you all can genuinely give me a good answer! Thanks!</p>
<p>So I am a rising senior, female, minority, and in state. I took only honors and AP courses (I will continue to do so in 12th grade) all throughout 9th-11th grade. I know 3 languages (and that is including English) fluently, have good technology/computer skills, and am interested in pursuing biomedical engineering or pharmacy. UNC is my first choice and NC State is my second choice.</p>
<p>CURRENT CLASS RANK: 78/449
UNWEIGHTED GPA: 3.66
WEIGHTED GPA: 4.375
SAT SCORE: 2030
SAT SUBJECT SCORE(S): Biology- 720, U.S. History- 760
ACT SCORE: 27
[I calculated if I get all A's, 1st semester of 12th grade, my GPA will be 4.57 weighted, and 3.71 unweighted, so I plan to work hard before sending off my transcript. Also, I plan to retake SAT and ACT again (I want SAT to be 2200+ and ACT to be at least 33) and take one more SAT subject test. By the way, the SAT subject test scores are from taking them a second time.]</p>
