Subject Commentary

Biology This is one of my top subjects! Proficiency: Expert
I am applying to med school in the summer of 2013, so I have had vast experience with all fields of biology. In high school I took AP Biology and received a 5 on the exam. In college I have taken molecular/cellular biology and lab, genetics and genetics lab, and biochemistry. I also have taken and the MCAT and studied for and done well on the Biological Sciences section of the test.

Almost all of my college electives were taken in Government and Politics, I was one class short of receiving a minor, and I received a grade of A/A- in all Political Science courses.

I also successfully spent the last summer studying for and taking the MCAT. These experiences have necessitated that I develop excellent study skills in order to accomplish all of my academic goals.
