<p>I think you've got a serious shot.
Your SATs won't knock anyone over, and they don't usually care much what major you think you'd be interested in, but here you have both expressed and demonstrated your passion for it. You sound like an interesting applicant, and I suspect you'll be recognized as such.
Good luck!</p>
