<p>Essays are fine, rec's are good. I hope someone responds.</p>

<p>I responded</p>

<p>you have a chance. apply and then tell us what happened</p>

<p>But what does "a chance" mean? Is this a super-reach? A reach? A target? I just hope my essays are up to par.</p>

<p>A chance means that you should just wait for the decision rather than asking us. Check the EA admit thread if you want to see if you match up, but bear in mind that a lot of it's wonky and the subjective bits are probably what make them look that way.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>I keep saying this...nobody knows how this works! Admissions counselors are highly specialized people in judging students and we don't come close. That said, good luck, PEW.</p>
