<p>I think being first generation helps, and your where you need to be academically. The only thing that will make or break your application at this point is essays. Other than that, you have a chance for sure. I’d have to say reach, since it’s Yale, but don’t let that discourage you. You have a better chance than most people.</p>

<p>Apply early and see what happens. You have strong stats, decent ECs that give you a chance to get accepted. You can’t really ask for more</p>

<p>You have an excellent chance of being accepted. With ivies, it’s hit and miss, but you’ll definitely get accepted to a few of them</p>
