<p>Are you saying you’ve only taken 6 APs in HS (Eng, Germ, Micro, Lit, Calc, Psych)? That doesn’t sound like a lot but I’m not sure how many your school offers/how many students usually take at your school. </p>

<p>Dedicated to athletics so that’s a plus but nothing really stands out for your ECs. </p>

<p>Just based on your objective stats I’d say you have a good chance but make sure you come through with strong essays (and, of course, better articulation of your ECs) to lock it in. Don’t underestimate those components of the application.</p>
