Show off!!! Just kidding lol. They look for what every University of their stature looks for, which is good test grades and GPA. Your resume sounds great. Im sure if you keep it up you will definetly get in. You wanna be a doctor right? The red cross will definetly help. Good for you, got your life figured otu and everything. I wish you the best! Oh yea you should check their site and call them as well and ask them, they would probably tell you how they look for potential students

Among other things — they are looking for people who can spell.

Two Thirds of those accepted were in the top 10% of their HS classes — and 100% were in the top half. Two thirds of those accepted had SAT scores of 1870 or better. The average GPA was 3.60. I suspect that the 3.6 is an unweighted score — and that most applicants have weighted scores over 4.0 — and take lots of AP and Honors classes.

They accept about a third of the students who apply.

If you can bring your average up a little, do well on your SAT score and remember to use spell-checker on your essays — you have a shot.
