ISP Q's!

SAT subject tests for Math Level 11, Physics and Chemistry are recommended.

I am currently enrolled in AP Chemistry and I took the SAT Biology test last year.

Will switching physics and chemistry for the SAT Biology and AP Biology scores make me less competitive???

ISP isn't hard to get in because their spaces are usually not fully filled. People drop it once they realize it's too hard or when they are too worried about their GPA (premeds). How's your math? Based on what I read, this program is pretty quantitatively intensive. For example, you won't be studying just biology, but mathematical biology. It is probably one of the most rigorous science programs out there. The integration sets it apart from all others. Think of it as a little MIT on Northwestern campus.

ISP stats?

Is this adequate to be accepted to ISP:

SAT II Chemistry- 800
SAT II Math II- 800
AP Chemistry- 5
AP Calc BC- 5
SAT I- 2350
ACT- 36

Additionally, I will be taking AP Physics C-Mechanics this year and expect to get a 4 or 5. I don't have any Biology background whatsoever--will that put me at a disadvantage?
