<p>wow. Your academic record is really good. The most APs anyone I know of has taken this year has been 5. They'll definitely be impressed with 6.
Also props for the SATIIs.
I'd say you have a standing chance.</p>

<p>If you want to be considered, you need to write some stellar essays. Your class rank is low. Your SAT is very low.</p>

<p>i disagree with avant-garde. so your SAT isn't perfect...but absolutely everything else is above and beyond the call of duty. i bet colleges are begging for you. gpa? check. APs? check. extracurriculars? check. community involvement? check. leadership? check. </p>

<p>write good essays, spend a lot of time revising them. your teacher recs will probably be glowing. </p>

<p>and on a random note, it's pretty cool you're a citizen of the UK</p>
