<p>I’d say yes, you have a good chance of getting it, or at least getting invited to the weekend where you interview to get it (but don’t stress about the interview; I had a blast at mine). Your stats are very similar to mine, and your extracurriculars/music awards are way better - fill out the applications for the music & community service scholarships too.</p>

<p>Here are my stats for comparison:
Fairly good public school
4.0uw/4.2w GPA
8/275 rank
AP scores: 5 on both Latins, Human Geo, US History, US Government; 4 on English Lit & Microecon
SAT: 800 writing/760 CR/690 math
SAT II: 750 Latin, 700 US History</p>

<p>Good luck!!!</p>
