<p>I think you got a pretty decent chance :slight_smile: It all depends on your essays and recs now. What did you write about? Did you add anything to yourspace? Did you apply ED II? Chance back?

<p>@12345n‌ I wrote about my passion, decent essay, excellent recs from my counsellor and my teachers. I applied RD though :D</p>

<p>@vieviepu If your essay is decent and your recs are good then I think you have a very good chance of getting in with your scores and ECs. However, because the yield is low, they prefer applicants from their ED rounds and if it’s your dream, you should switch to ED II :). But, as I said, your stats are great and you should get in RD as well</p>

<p>I’d also say decent to slight reach. Your essays are going to need to distinguish you from many who have a similar academic profile. You also don’t indicate much involvement in your high school which is a small concern.</p>

<p>@wherezwallace‌ Though I made it short here, I did elaborate on my involvement with my high school in the app and the resume (school activities, student council, school clubs, organizations and so on). I will check on my essay and try to make it as decent as possible. Thank you so much for your advice !! :)</p>
