<p>uh. Just out of curiosity, how do you decide between "great, very good, pretty good"? Also, did you apply ED II or Reg? Your ACTs are a little low, but then again, Bates is Test Optional. Your extra curriculars are good, a little sparse, but I'm sure you'll do fine! your common app essay sounds really interesting! Good luck!</p>
