<p>hi everyone i know like everyone asks these types of questions on college confidential but i must know if i have a chance at these schools. So when i grow up i hope to be an anesthesiologist and i want to go to college at one of these schools: UPenn, Brown, Columbia, Tufts, Johns Hopkins maybe Georgetown, williams or amherst.
my dad also next year will be working at Upenn Medical school, so would that help for admission to upenn. Both my parents are immigrants and i am an African American female</p>

<p>For field Hockey i did jv at my old school for sophomore year then i moved up to varsity for the last couple of games
when i transfered schools i was also put on jv because the varsity coach thought i was too fat because i had gained weight(a lot) from being bullied and i could not run as fast as the other girls so i only played 2 varsity games and the rest were jv(but i started every game on jv and i can play every position)
the jv coach told me that if i had an awesome senior i can play d1 because i am a good field hockey player but the varsity coach was all about first impressions. my jv coach walked onto umass darmouth d2 school with only two years of field hockey experience
we are playing in a class A prep school league( the top league for high school) so the teams are still tough
next year i am going to do a club team
national festival and national indoor tourament
i also have started to shave off the weight i gained( lost 30 so far)</p>

<p>i want to play sports in college but my primary concern is to get into a good college with or without sports. I am not looking to get a sports scholarship but just to play and get an experience. During grad school i actually want to be a field hockey and track coach. I know my grads are low and my sat sucks but i had a tough start to high school and i know people who go to brown and got there with a 3.2 gpa. any help will be much appreciated.</p>
