<p>You sound exactly like me, but with better EC's. I'd say you have a fairly good shot at those.</p>

<p>thanks, anyone else have any thoughts?</p>

<p>Pretty good chance I think, your architecture profile will definitely play a good role. And your EC's are good too... SAT's are decent too. But hey, I am not the adcom :) All the best though!</p>

<p>thanks, I appreciate it</p>

<p>I also forget to mention I have a recommendation from the architect I worked for and its very good</p>

<p>Your portfolio is the key. You do have excellent ecs and your strong courseload and good scores should help. These are all pretty difficult schools but I think you may get into some of them. Also look at Illinois. They are very strong in Architecture. Good luck!</p>
