<p>I think you have a great shot. You might want to retake your SAT to see if you can get a higher score, but other than that it looks good.</p>

<p>URM status will help you. Good ECs. You’ve shown initiative in your coursework during the academic year and your summers. Write some good essays!</p>

<p>If you are applying ED, I think you have a good shot, although your SATs could be higher. Indeed as Welles10 mentioned your URM status will be beneficial. Being bilingual can also help, although a good number of Wellesley applicants speak two or more languages.</p>

<p>Your gpa, class rank, APs (except chemistry), ECs and awards all hint positively toward your chances, if you apply ED; I reiterate you could aim for a higher SAT score, otherwise you seem to be well positioned. If you continue in the direction you have taken and invest quality time writing your essay, I think you have a good ED chance at Wellesley.</p>
