General Comments:</p>

<p>I think that you have a good shot, especially because of your ethnicity and because you are girl. But also because you plain have good stats, so good luck!!</p>

<p>You seem like a solid applicant, and being part Mexican does count as an URM. Impressive AP and SAT II scores as well! Did you apply to CC or Engineering?</p>

<p>I applied CC. Idk if that helps or not. Probably would have a better chance if I applied SEAS but not really interested in engineering.</p>
