<p>GPA good, hooks also good. Class rank is admirable. Try to pull up your ACT/SAT . Nice courseload, but EC’s aren’t that good. Plus do you have any EC’s related to your major?
And if your essays are good, you might just get in !

<p>I am no expert and it is always a toss up at the competetive schools but I think you have a very good chance, especially since you are first gen. My only concern is that your EC’s seem are weak but that is only one part of the application. If your essays and letters of rec were outstanding then I say you have a really good chance. :)</p>
