  1. Undergrad Institution: Top 5 liberal arts collegeMajor(s): Biology w/ conc. in molecular biology/biochemMinor(s):GPA in Major: 3.65 Overall GPA: 3.58Position in Class: Type of Student: Domestic MaleGRE Scores (revised/old version):Q: High 160s (practice exams)V: High 150s/low 160s (practice exams)W: idk I'm pretty sure I can get the verbal up a bit more if I memorize more vocab. I'm taking the test in 6 weeks. As for quant, as long as I don't make a stupid mistake, I think I can get 170.Research Experience: 3 summers of internships at different labs: - 2 summers spent at USC at different oceanic microbe labs. Didn't really do much there except learn to pipette stuff and extract DNA. - 1 summer at a lab in my school, working on my own project. Did a lot of PCR and zebrafish developmental stuff. 1 year of working on senior thesis on microbiology. 1+ (current) working at Sloan Kettering, working with cell culture and CRISPR libraries, and other molecular techniques. Hoping to submit something before I leave.Awards/Honors/Recognitions: Dean's list for a few semestersPertinent Activities or Jobs: TA for 5 semesters in various biology courses. 1 year on the advisory committee for biology majors. Worked for a semester in a Drosophila lab.Any Miscellaneous Accomplishments that Might Help: Know a little bit of R and Python Special Bonus Points: My thesis adviser wrote me a really good LOR. I'll get another one from my current PI, which I think I can count on to be just as good. I'll get a third from one of the summer PIs.Any Other Info That Shows Up On Your App and Might Matter:Applying to Where: Areas of interest: - cancer biology - microbiome - I would love to learn more about computational methods, and how we can apply them for modeling how the different components in the cell interact and respond to different stimuli. Applying to mainly molecular/cellular biology programs. Harvard BBS, and maybe MCO MIT UC Berkeley Stanford Caltech U Washington CU Boulder and maybe Weill Cornell
