<p>I'm a sophomore (I'm supposed to be a freshman, but I skipped a grade), and a Hispanic female. Virginia is my state of residency. I haven't taken my SAT's yet, but what kind of scores do I need to almost guarantee my admittance? I have a 3.7 grade point average, and I know I'm not reaching my full potential (I'm doing half of my classes online, so teaching yourself is a little harder!). If I went full-time at my local high school, I would easily have a 3.9 or 4.0 (I'm going full-time next year). Will me being an underrepresented ethnicity help my chances of getting in at all? I plan on applying to University of Virginia, Duke, Cornell, and University of Chicago. Would playing a sport help me at all? I plan on taking tennis lessons and joining my high school's varsity team. I want to either major in biomedical engineering or just pre-med. Can you have double-majors?</p>
