<p>Looks good; I think you'll have a very solid shot this fall if you apply ED, and still very good chances RD (only because RD tends to be more unpredictable). Your boards and awards look a lot like mine did junior year. </p>
<p>The only place I think you're a tad weak in is leadership. VP of one club isn't really competitive compared to most other qualified applicants. But, you're stronger in awards/honors, where most aren't. (By the way, 115 on the AMC 12 isn't low at all.)</p>
<p>Good essays and recs should pull you through easily. Junior year is a good time to do some soul-searching, so start thinking, if you haven't already, about ideas, ideals, and principles that make you who you are. Yes, that means delving into that murky world of philosophy and reflection where nothing is as certain as math or chemistry, but have fun doing it!</p>
<p>Chances threads belong here and not in the 2010 forum :p</p>
<p>Your academics are pretty strong. Nice GPA, predicted SAT, AP's etc</p>
<p>However, your EC's don't seem to have much depth or leadership.</p>
<p>Overall you'll be a compeditive applicant. Write great essays, be nice to your teachers and you'll have a great chance... and as Frozen said- applying ED will help you alot :)</p>
<p>Good Luck</p>
<p>From Nick Zhao, I hate you.</p>
<p>Thanks for the kind words Nick...</p>
