<p>Your chances are pretty decent… not great per se, but pretty decent. Good luck!</p>

3

<p>Thank you. I hope pretty decent is good enough. I wish you luck on your college process as well!</p>

4

<p>Thank you. Something just occurred to me. Is your 3.9 GPA weighted or unweighted?</p>

5

<p>Weighted, my school doesn’t give out un-weighted GPA’s.</p>

6

<p>OK, that’s what I thought. I was just making sure. From the looks of the correlation between your GPA and class rank, it seems that your school is quite competitive. If so, that will certainly help your chances as well.</p>
