<p>I definitely think you have a great chance of getting in UChicago, especially with EA. I don’t even see a purpose for retaking SAT since you already did so well on your ACT. Great GPA (4.97 weighted… out of 5? does that mean you’ve been taking all AP classes since freshman year?). Your weighted rank is much more important than unweighted rank, so you’re very well off. Best of luck to you!</p>

<p>I would say high match/low reach for EA. You’ve got a good profile, now you have to sell your potential with your essays.</p>
