<p>Hello, just wondering what my chances would be for admission into the ACES college.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.10 (I go to a competitive private high school, grades are much better 1st quarter of senior year)
ACT: Only scored a 24 as a junior, 8 on reading section</p>

<p>Biggest achievement: Qualified individually for state bowling tournament junior year by finishing 3rd in my sectional, which is one of the most competitive in the country. Ended up 32nd individually at state.</p>

<p>I volunteer as a teachers assistant, and a middle school bowling coach (2 yrs.)
I also played a year of baseball, and bowled for four years, earning a varsity letter each year</p>

<p>additional: First generation student
Took AP Macroeconomics, and AP government classes, as well as two honors history courses that I took soph/jr. years.
I meet at least all the minimum requirements for high school coursework.
I'm an illinois resident</p>

<p>I also made it apparent that I plan on joining the bowling team</p>

<p>What does “bump” mean?</p>

<p>If your school is as competitive as you say it is, then I think you have a decent chance of getting in. Your GPA/Test scores are on the lower end of the in-state acceptance.</p>

<p>Yeah, most (if not all) of the seniors last year that applied got in.
ACES college is one of the least competitive, and I think it was definitely a good move to take an AP econ class to better my chances.</p>
