chances greatly appreciated

<p>My stats
super reach, reach, or slight reach??
act=29 (1st time, but will retake hoping for 30 or above)
satII us history(700) chemistry (730)
10 ap (Most rigorous possible) (scored mostly 4 and a few 5)by end of senior year (mostly A and A-) AP scholar with distinction
GPA=4.15/4.0
no class rank, but would be top 3% out of 700 students.

first generation college person (mom dropped out of high school), biracial (asian and caucasion), disadvantaged (low income, parent at mental hospital, divorced, sibling dropped out of high school, all happened during high school but managed to keep up my grades)</p>

<p>Expecting good recs and excellent essay. I displayed tremendous improvement since 9th grade. I didn't grow up in an academic atmosphere. Never really exposed to books or anything. Decided to challenge myself with ap and started to do well in school. (ACT score jumped from 19-29 in one year)</p>

<p>Do I have a chance??</p>

<p>you have a pretty unique family situation, use it to your benefit. </p>

<p>i'm assuming you're in incoming senior? i would work on your test scores a bit, to further strengthen your application, but as long as your recs and essays are excellent like you said, i think you have a pretty good chance of getting in.</p>
