Chance me for U of R?

<p>University of Rochester is far and above my first choice school. That being said, I don't think that I fit in quite right in terms of GPA and ECs, which concerns me. I was wondering that, if given my circumstance, I could still get accepted?</p>

<p>Gender: Male
Ethnicity: Caucasian
GPA (weighted): 3.74, GPA (UW): 3.44
ACT Composite: 32
ACT English: 36
ACT Math: 30
ACT Reading: 32
ACT Science: 32
I have a positive trend in GPA. Started from the bottom now we're here.</p>

<p>Applying as an Economics major, which for most schools is in the College of Arts and Sciences.</p>

<p>Applying for financial aid.</p>

<p>High school is highly respected and one of the top in the state. I believe its in the top 15 schools in the state but I could be making this up completely. Its way up there, though. Also, I'm from Michigan, so keep out-of-state enrollment in mind.</p>

<p>AP Classes/Scores:
AP Economics - 4
AP Psychology - 4
AP Composition - 2 (ssssh stop judging)
AP Art History
AP Biology
AP Spanish
AP Literature</p>

<p>EC's:
