<p>Your in at all except the Ivies, which are a crapshoot. You have good shots at them, but they reject tons of perfect applicants. Also JHU and Carnegie Mellon are tough, but you’ve got a good shot. Good luck, you’ll get into plenty of your schools.</p>

I know this is so many years later…but where did you end up going and how has it been? i’m also im the process of applying to bs/md programs and and really hoping to get into one
