<p>Hello College Confidential!</p>
<p>I just wanted to get a feel about whether or not I have a shot of getting into a school like Princeton. I understand how competitive the Ivies are and also how much luck is involved in being admitted, but I wanted to get a general idea about my chances. Thanks in advance! Oh, I also feel my ECs are a bit weak, but they are what they are.</p>
