<p>you have a very good chance, but your gpa is low, and you haven't taken very many ap's. Even if honors is close to ap's at your school, they like to see applicants taking the toughest courses available. That said, I'd rate your chances as 70/30, mainly because of the prolific ec leadership positions.</p>

<p>Are you still planning to do premed in the SFS? I hear that can be near impossible, especially with the study abroad and so on.</p>
