<p>Wow. that's an impressive profile, although I don't know how many hours/week you devote to each activity. </p>

<p>I'd say you've got decent chances (essay important, like I always say). I'd complain about your SAT scores, but you do so much, I'm not sure they'll negatively affect you all that much--but no harm in the retake, hope you did better!</p>

<p>good luck :)</p>

<p>ECs seem alright and you do have the whole URM thing going for you, but the low GPA + below-average SAT combo means it's really gonna be tough.</p>
