<p>I'm currently a junior in high school and will be looking to go to a college in either the NYC or the Washington D.C. areas. I'm looking for a school that which has pre med, and am also considering the Sophie Davis 7 year BS/MD school. Some other colleges that I am looking at are Pace, NYU, LIU, George Washington University, and Fordham. Money is not an issue.</p>
<p>Here are my stats-</p>
<p>GPA- 90.5
SAT- Will get above a 2100 for sure, aiming for 2300.
APs- This year I am taking Physics B and American History. Next year I will be taking either Bioligy or Chemistry and Calculus BC.
EC- (all these are what I will be applying with.)
4 years of Marching Band, 2 as section leader.
2 years Model Congress.
2 years volunteering at hospital.
Internship at hospital.
3 years monitoring in Bioligy department at school.</p>
<p>I go to a very large school in Brooklyn, NY, my graduating class has 1200 kids. My reccomendations will also be extremely solid.</p>
<p>So here is the question, what schools should I be looking at? Thanks.</p>
<p>NYU
Columbia
Georgetown
George Washington U
Johns Hopkins (45 minutes from DC)
U Penn (Philadelphia is 90 minutes from NYC)
Swarthmore
Haverford
U Maryland College Park (suburban DC)</p>
<p>I'd suggest broadening your geographic preferences just a bit - you'll have much better options if you add in upstate NY, Pennsylvania, and New England. Instead of Pace and LIU check out Juaniata College and Washington and Jefferson as your "safe bet" schools. They both have excellent pre-med programs. Then, check out Dickinson, SUNY Binghamton, Franklin and Marshall, the University of Rochester, and Boston U as possible match schools. Finally, throw in a few reaches with solid pre-med programs like Brandeis, Colgate, Columbia, Johns Hopkins, Swarthmore.</p>
<p>Thanks, I checked out your suggestions and will be adding </p>
<p>Columbia
Johns Hopkins
U Penn
SUNY Binghamton
University of Rochester
Brandeis</p>
<p>To my list. The problem is that I think I am short on safetys. I would consider going to school in any large east coast city such as Philly or Baltimore as well, even if it is not ideal. Or anything 2 hours or so away from home (Brooklyn, NY). Any more suggestions? Thanks again.</p>
