<p>Your board scores are fine, and being a double legacy applying ED certainly helps, but the 91 GPA, mediocre class standing and C in Precalc will not make a favorable impression. That being said, I still think you have a fair shot.</p>
<p>your class rank is going to kill you majorily. ur gpa is mediocre. ur ap’s are awesome. u might make it in if ur recs n essays are good. u’ve got a chance b/c of early decision. good luck!!</p>
<p>well given that there are less than 90 students in his class, his ranking may not be as horrendous as it seems by percentile. it doesn’t rule you out as a candidate though; write fabulous essays.</p>
<p>thanks for the responses. my rank is a huge concern, but my school is really competitive. A 1% difference basically cuts through from rank 1 to ~15. For example, a 96 GPA would be rank 22. So… um yeah… well i’ve still got essays and doub leg! 
so i have something to bet on!</p>
