@Timriggins34 SAT and AP’s are great! Unweighted GPA is lower than average for Wake. Since your brother is there… Was his unweighted GPA higher than yours? Keep showing interest, tour, interview etc. Family connections at Wake are ‘considered’ but not a critical
Factor in decision making. It may help to look at the two threads for this year’s incoming class where students are posting their stats. It will help you see who is getting admitted / deferred / rejected. There’s a thread for Wake Forest Early Decision 2022 and one titled Wake Forest RD 2022. Last comment… applying Early Decision at Wake boosts your admissions chances considerably, although I realize not everyone can do that. Around 36% acceptance rate for ED vs 24% acceptance for RD.
