I think of applying to jhu (1st choice) northwestern (2nd choice), yale, brown, maybe harvard (but I’m not that interested)
want to do Biomediacal Engineering and possibly go into medical school.

Problems:
my extra curricular is lacking. not a lot of leadership/outstanding stuff. not a lot of volunteering either. and i only started getting involved in junior year.
Also, my teacher recommendations- i know my teachers and they know me (as a hard worker and such) but I’m not super outgoing in class. i talk in class but i don’t talk to the teacher that much, such as joking or personally knowing them. so my teacher recommendations may be superficial at best (nothing deep/not a lot of anecdotes/stories the teacher can say)
Will this hurt me a bunch?
What are my chances?
