I'm currently a biology major-neuroscience track at Carnegie Mellon University. I'm starting to put my application together and was hoping for some advice as to where to apply and what my relative chances are at those schools.
GPA: 3.83
MCAT: VR-10 PS-12 BS-14 CM-36Q
ECs:
Fencing - competitive for 6 years, served as the CMU club's VP for two years and coached a little on the side.
Research - immunology and cancer research for a little over a semester (will continue into the summer)
Shadowing - approximately 60hrs with a general practitioner, colorectal surgeon, GI specialist, and a plastic surgeon
Taught english in China for a month before the Beijing Olympics
Attended the 5th Grand Vittachi Conference on Education as one of Hawaii's youth delegates in 2005.
Played violin for 11 years
Schools I'm applying to:
University of Hawaii (in state)
Harvard (reach, but why not)
Hopkins
UCSF (dream school, but I'm out of state)
Chapel Hill
University of Pittsburgh
Tufts
Thanks for any help.
