HORRIBLE GPA (not exaggerating)

I’m too lazy to explain what Kumon is, so if you are intersted, go here:
http://www.kumon.com/about/default.asp?language=USA. It’s basically like Kaplan/PR except it’s for all ages: preschoolers up to algebra 2-ish material… it was also founded by a Jappie <represent!></represent!>



goofball:
I will have taken 7 AP classes by the end of senior year. Like others have recommended my doing, I am going to go full-out senior year and attempt a straight A/A+ across the board. Assuming I pull that off, I think I am in a fairly good/competitive position (I hope). However saying these things is 6.02 X 10^23 times easier said than done. Earning an A in an AP class is outright difficult, and will require SIGNIFICANT work on my part – especially considering senioritus and all.

I plan to major in biomedical sciences / pre-med area – this is why I’m intersted in NW, WUSTL, and Emory as my reaches. Will U. Wisconsin – Madison be a good safety, and U. Mich be a good match for me? Does anyone have any suggests on more safeties and matches?
