I really wish I had research but I could not find a single doctor or professor that was willing to let me do research. In Houston; I asked University of Houston; University of Texas Health Science Center; Baylor College of Medicine; MD Anderson; Memorial Hermann; Houston Baptist; Rice University; Houston Methodist; Texas Childrens; and I got 500 emails with NO all over them.

I think your credentials as a whole are fine. Your stats are exceptional – nothing to worry about there, and your extracirriculars are great as well. However, Chicacgo is a school that places so much emphasis on your essays, probably more than anything else to be honest. So, I can’t really chance you for a school like chicago as your essays will literally make/break it for most people. So my advice to you, is to start the essays ASAP (I believe the common app opens on August 1st) and get TWO good teacher reccomendations, as they are required.
