Are you Chinese or Japanese? If you are Japanese you have a better chance of getting into UChicago. I don’t know of many Japanese students at the school. You should apply EA to improve your chances. If you have any interest in computer science, take classes in it in high school and show intent to major in it on your application. Good luck.

Good chance for Berkeley and a decent shot at Chicago. Good luck.

You have a good chance at UCB and you are a strong candidate for UChicago (it’s such a competitive school so who can really tell).
