What are my chances of getting into these colleges for Pre-Medicine or Biology?

First off I'm not an Admission's officer at all, so I wont sit here and pretend I am, I think that by taking All Honors and AP courses that you're showing you enjoy challenging work and that you can handle college work which of course colleges and universities love, also the fact that you're active in your community is a good thing. When you think in terms of applying to college don't think too much about how m any things you're doing but think about which of the things are you most dedicated and interested in. I once knew of a girl who was valedictorian of her class, had all these E.C.'s but wasn't truly invested in them and her college admissions essay reflected that, she didn't get in to many of the schools she wanted to because of that. Your SAT score is a tad weak for some of these schools except for Rutgers NB and Monmouth(( believe Penn State also) that I know of, but being an Honors and AP student you should do tons better your second time around with some hard work. Regardless of these schools SAT and GPA ranges you want to have the best possible GPA and SAT score especially if you want to be Pre-Med because it's very competitive. I think that overall you seem to be a well-rounded hard working student and it is important that you demonstrate this when applying to colleges. I apologize if this isn't helpful but the truth is no one can(or SHOULD--people will sit here and try anyways) to tell you that you can get into this school but not the other and definitely this one and not definitely not that one. All colleges look for different things in their students regardless of a few blunders they will admit a student that they find fits into the profile they are trying to build.
