I’m just a little bit worried about my chances of getting into the schools I’m applying to and wanted some other opinions on what the possibilities are.

Other: Studied abroad in Costa Rica last summer, Tennessee Governor’s School for International Studies, have an essay published in a competitive literary magazine, work as a camp counselor every summer
Essays: My Common App essay was about how folding origami taught me how to be more selfless. It was well-written and semi-unique.
Recs: I know my AP bio teacher wrote me an incredible rec, as did my GC, and my other teacher rec was very solid too.
However, I’m a white girl from Tennessee in the upper middle class so I don’t really fit the unique student profile that most of these schools look for. Do you guys think I have a good chance of acceptance?
