<p>You have a good a shot as anyone who is actually qualified to be a student at Northwestern (which you most certainly are). SATs are in the average range, but nothing to discount you. With the way that admissions numbers are these days, its not so much about your accomplishments when it comes to being accepted, but more about luck. </p>
