Hopkins is probably an unrealistic reach with an SAT score of 1270. If you have decent grades and can bump it up to the mid-to-high 1300’s, it would be more realistic.

I agree with mini’s list. A few other schools I might add for you to look at: Dickinson in PA, Boston U, Brandeis, St. Olaf, Emory, Franklin and Marshall, Grinnell, Kenyon, U of Wisconsin, Reed, Rhodes Colege, Southwestern U, Trinity College, U of Michigan, Tufts, Wake Forest. All of these are very different schools with different levels of competitiveness but all have great bio departments. Add in mini’s suggestions and Johns Hopkins and you’d have a great place to start.
