3. admission into an Ivy league school</p>

<p>bump???</p>

<p>Your stats look pretty perfect to me. I’d say just work on the ECs a bit and write awesome essays, and you’re set!</p>

4

<p>Most likely acceptance at Cornell and Dartmouth</p>

<p>thanks guys</p>

<p>Even if you are accepted to these to schools, which your stats make highly possible, these are the most competitive medical programs in the country! Just think of how stressed out you could be at all four years with all your peers not wanting study groups or to help you understand difficult concepts. Keeping a good GPA is a must for med schools. So try and research some less competitive but equally challenging programs!</p>

<p>Thanks for the advice. I am most likely going to go to a slightly less rigorous undergrad unless I get into a BS/MD program which guarantees med school admission.</p>
