Hi, from your experience, what types of colleges do you think I have a chance of getting into?

Class: 2014
Female, Public School, Asian
GPA: 3.9
AP’s: Physics B, US History, Calculus BC, English Lang Comp, French, Biology
PSAT: 235
SAT: 2360
ACT: 36
Extracurriculars: Track/XC for 3 years, Board Member of Medical Club, Historian for Relay for Life American Cancer Society, Shadowed a pediatrician, Hospital volunteering, Tutoring and volunteering at daycare, People to People International Local Chapter Member
Possible Awards: National Merit and National Honor Society, as well as Math, French, and Science Honor Societies (I’ll be applying to these later in the year, but I think I have a good chance of getting in)

Next summer I also plan to apply to the SAAST @ UPENN program, so if any of you have done the Biotechnology program, how is it?

I have good grades and apparently a standardized testing wizard, but I think my extracurriculars are really average, so I’m not sure if this is going to hurt me…
