<p>Your resume looks to me like you are a perfect candidate - scores, grades in the mean with some great ec's. NU can be kind of funky with their admissions and the more selective schools sometimes come down to luck of the draw. if nu is your number one, apply early decision. besides that, i think you have a great chance of getting in.</p>
<p>honestly, your scores average for a decent shot at any school...please remember that it is up to you to put a story behind those scores. You need to show there is a potential to be great, (and different). There is no reason to reject you at first glance, but also there is no reason to accept you. I made that mistake when applying to college, thinking that my scores would carry me well enough. I landed up going to NU in one of their honors programs, which turned out to be better than I thought. Good luck</p>
