Being African American would normally help at a private undergraduate program but it is a more significant boost when your family income is lower or you’ve come from a difficult background. Not clear whether this is also true for joint MD/BS programs. Very few students get admitted to these programs nationwide. I would have expected AP chem and AP bio in your senior year. Also, your ECs should have much more of a medical slant. Your obviously very smart and talented but can you wield a scalpel or draw blood? In rereading your profile, these are just your junior year classes do you have another full year for chem and bio. PSAT score would indicate about 2000 SAT. You need to take SAT or timed practice SAT to see where you fall out. Probably not a bad idea to contact a department head in the joint program at one of these colleges and ask them, point blank, what they are looking for
