Matches and Safety schools?
Just looking for some match and safety schools for a microbiology major.
-
about a 3.8 (W) gpa (going to one of the best schools in the city and #1 in the district; upward trend)
-
28 ACT (just took the june 10th test, might change)
-
1270 SAT (will definitely change this and study to 1400+, definitely shooting for 1500+)
-
class rank: 5/~120
-
top 3% of class
-
AP classes taken: APUSH, euro, spanish lit, spanish lang, ap english lang; going to take AP bio, ap lit, and ap gov this upcoming year (taken all available APs in my school)
ECs:
- 2 years of church youth group
- started a science immunology blog
- comic book/anime club during 9th grade
- CollegeMatch program
- volunteering in a nearby but pretty major hospital (cant really say name)
- caretaker at a different hospital for about 2 months
- online community manager (was told i could put this)
- began running for about a year now (also told i could put this)
- peer councilor at my school
background:
