<p>You look like a solid candidate. Good GPA, OK ECs, seemingly good recs and essays...I would caution you to double check the validity of the Nat'l Society of High School Scholars and the National Honor role awards--I seem to remember hearing about something of a similar name to those that was false. Be careful about that. </p>

<p>And by the way, I'm a UU, too, and I sing in choir! :)</p>

<p>everything looks pretty much solid across the board--just your act scores might be a little on the low end.</p>

<p>i dont know what the applicant pool is going to be like but i'd say you have a good chance. :)</p>
