<p>I think you’ve got a great chance to be honest</p>

<p>Agree with jd. Best of luck!</p>

<p>I think you’ll likely get in! Nice scores.</p>

<p>chance me?</p>

<p>It’s really hard to say. First of all, Chicago’s selectivity has skyrocketed these past few years; they only accepted 15.8% of applicants this year and that number will likely drop next year. Second, Chicago seems to care a lot about the individual’s fit within the college, so if you can show that in your application, that will help you.</p>

<p>My guess? You have a good shot, but Chicago is approaching Ivy-level selectivity, so it’s still a reach.</p>

<p>Bumpppppppuhhhhhh</p>

<p>are there any areas which i should improve?</p>

<p>Well, your ECs don’t jump out at me, but it’s too late to fix that convincingly.</p>

<p>Really, what you should work on now is writing amazing essays that really show the admissions council that you’d be a great fit.</p>

<p>Also, there is no such thing as AP Photography.</p>

<p>I had a son with similar stats as you.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, he did not get into uchicago, thus ruining the 3 year legacy. We were extremely dissapointed in him because he is now pursuing a career in witchcraft at some local cult. </p>

<p>My best advice is to go to a UPENN lab this summer</p>

<p>thanks for the feedback…so how much will my ec’s hurt me? </p>
