<p>First, would you be applying for the Caltech/UCSD medical scholars program? If not, I dont really see why would want to go to Caltech for pre-med unless you wanted to a research focused MD or an MD/PHD as the Core is a GPA ruiner and Caltech is an academically intense place. See: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/california-institute-technology/577759-why-caltech-different-open-letter.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/california-institute-technology/577759-why-caltech-different-open-letter.html</a></p>
<p>In terms of chances, the grades and the scores are great but I don’t see a passion math/science beyond being a doctor not that being a doctor isnt awesome but Caltech is really looking for a passion in math/science/engineering.</p>
