I am also applying to Wake this year, so we’re in the same boat. I mean you have a strong ACT, and you seem to be a very good wrestler. The supplements, given that test scores don’t matter much here anymore, probably hold some weight here, so if you think they weren’t special, that’s a bit concerning.
Anyways, even though I’m no admissions expert, I think you’ll get into Wake. Do you know your class rank at all or how competitive you are within your class?
Your information seems similar to mine, so hopefully we both get in! If anyone viewing this post could check mine out and give me chances, I’d greatly appreciate it!
I think you have a really good chance! Your EC’s are unique and your SAT/GPA are great. Of course nothing is guaranteed, but you shouldn’t be too worried.
