<p>I think your chances are quite good, ECs are great except the last one, which I would emphasize if I were you. But good SATs and GPA</p>

3

<p>wheres the ap/ib calc? good sats, but you should definitely retake the math IIc. looking at what you can do, you should be able to hit 800.</p>

<p>my high school doesn't offer ap calc, but they did offer Calculus through cal state fullerton, which i took my junior year, so i get direct college credit for it. </p>

<p>and yeah, i actually will be retaking math II in november.</p>

<p>Your chances are excellent.</p>
