Is there anything I could work on to increase my chances of attending a school like usc/ucla
Answered

Hello! Attending usc or ucla is a literal dream but I don’t know if my stats are good enough. I am a black rising junior in Highschool and plan on majoring in biology or some science related field with intentions of being on the pre-med track. I have a 4.01W gpa and I have not taken the sat yet. So far I have took 2 APs but plan on taking 3 junior year and 3-4 senior year. (I have gotten into a medical related program that requires for me to remove some classes hence why I have to take on more senior year.) I’m involved the the clubs earth club, medical club, multicultural club and I volunteer at hospital, animal shelter and for Red Cross. In the upcoming school year I will be involved in Hosa, and cte national honor society. I also have started a non profit and also have a social media position for a youth organization. (And a job). I haven’t got any outstanding awards or solved world hunger while discovering a new element but was just wondering if there’s anything I could do to boost my chances. Thank you.
