hey … I have applied to Lafayette in the early decision 1 (fall 2018) I am currently in my senior year.
ACT ( 27) I know my ACT is bad but I scored 97th percentile on STEM portion.
GPA (4) unweighted
I have very good extra-curricular activities and demonstrated a very good leadership like being elected as the students’ union president and mathematics team president and founder
I took 7 honors in grade 10 and 7 honors in grade 11; our school doesn’t offer AP tests but we use AP as a syllabus
I have very strong recommendation letters.
I participated in many scientific competitions like physics olypmpiad(7th place in my country), ISEF (3rd place in biochemistry) and blast off( 3rd place in robotics)
I created two projects in grade 11 and submitted the poster of each of them to the university
I play football, handball, and volleyball
I am the only one applying from my school and maybe from my country
I will need considerable amount of financial aid
I have a friend who got into bucknell last year with 28 ACT and didn’t have as many as my ECs; this gives me a hope that I have a chance at being accepted.

could you rate my chances?

Your ACT us at the 25%th percentile for students accepted in the ED round and below the 25% percentile for total admits. https://about.lafayette.edu/lafayette-at-a-glance/class-profile/ Sorry to say but I think it it unlikely as an international needing significant aid that you will be accepted. You have been told that on another one of your threads. You will find out next month.
