<p>Your UW GPA and your SAT verbal is a little low. But your ACT score is excellent. I would just report your ACT score if possible. Try to find some leadership roles in your ECs. Being Asian may help, or atleast it won't count against you like many other top colleges.</p>

<p>I think you have a pretty good chance (assuming your essays and teacher recs are quality).</p>
