thanks</p>

<p>“Chances” are really hard to predict, that’s one thing I’ve learned in the past year.</p>

<p>The best you can do is to compare yourself to the VU student profile (see [The</a> Vanderbilt Profile | Undergraduate Admissions | Vanderbilt University](<a href=“http://admissions.vanderbilt.edu/profile/]The”>Vanderbilt At A Glance | Undergraduate Admissions | Vanderbilt University)), keeping in mind that the 2013 stats are even higher than the 2012 ones currently shown. Admission to VU has become increasingly competitive, so advice would be the usual: apply, but have alternatives in your list.</p>
