Tough, be yourself, and make sure you are interested in the ethos of this campus.
Biology
decent grades, decent standardized scores, great extracurriculars, and among the top 3 interviews in the past 10 years for my interviewer... Once you get in, you can schedule a meeting with Admissions to discuss why you got in - for a rainy day or something.
Biology
Obviously, you should get stellar grades and high scores on SAT... Also, the Honor Code is a REALLY big deal here; it's not just a ploy of the admissions office! Take time in writing your honor code essay, and be honest about any relevant past experiences and your opinion on the idea of the Code. Beyond that, try to write essays that sparkle with your wonderful personality. :) Good luck! Don't lose hope-it is all worth it in the end. If you get in, you will love it here.
Chemistry
If you want to come to Haverford just set up an interview and go on and on about how you would fit in with the community and what makes you compatible with the environment that the honor-code supposedly creates.
English
You need to have the best of everything. Oh and harass the admissions counselors, that's what I did.

i also got into princeton, MIT, amherst, swarthmore etc but i choose haverford because of its quaker affiliation (simple life rather than opulent), drive to justice, tolerance and equality in the world, and focus on individual growth.
PreMed and Medical
Lots of hard work in high school and I made sure to come out to the college for a tour and an overnight visit (which clinched my decision to attend Haverford).
Undecided
Show that you are passionate about the world around you.

High SATs 3.65 out of a tremendously competitive school
