College Search & Selection

<p>I am a junior and just got back my SATs today</p>

<p>CR-700
Math-650
Writing-780</p>

<p>I have around a 92 GPA in all honors classes, plus I got to a school with a dual curriculum...thats 11 classes. I think I want to go Pre-Med, I'd love to go to a college on the east coast. </p>

<p>Here's where I'm thinking so far:</p>

<p>Emory University-I'll be one of two or three applying from my school
Hopkins
Barnard
Brandeis
BU
NYU
U. of Maryland</p>

<p>Could I get in2 any of these schools? Where else should I be looking?</p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>

<p>BUMP!!</p>

<p>plus a whole bunch of ECs.</p>

<p>Can you afford all those schools on your list without aid?</p>

<p>Get that SAT up. Those are pretty competitive schools, so your CR/Math should probably be at least 1400. Not that you don’t have a chance, but that would certainly help.</p>

5

<p>I think you could get into UMaryland, NYU, and possibly Emory, but definitely try to get that math score up!</p>

6

<p>I’ve taken Barnard and Hopkins off of the list, which makes it much easier!</p>

<p>What can your family afford? </p>

<p>Have you calculated your EFC yet on the Collegeboard website with parents 2010 tax returns? EFC = Expected Family Contribution </p>

<p>Do you have a divorce situation with your parents? Do you have a step parent? </p>

<p>Will you be full pay and not eligible for financial aid, so that $50,000 plus is no problem for all 4 years? It is best to discuss finances NOW, as it affects what schools you should apply to.</p>

<p>Emory is a slight reach for you. You need to bring up the math part up which shouldn’t be that hard. Aside from Emory you have a solid shot at everywhere else you listed. If you are Maryland instate, you have good chance of getting into the Honors program which is pretty nice as well.</p>

<p>Emory and JHU are great schools for pre-med. Definitely improve your SAT and GPA for either schools.</p>
