<p>hmmm, your critical reading score is reaaallly low. and the grades are so-so. ECs? i don't see any. good luck though, you'll definitely need it.</p>

<p>Solid, solid application. Although you don't have a hook (Intel STS finalist would earn you that hook), you have a fair shot at any college.</p>

<p>Let's just say that there are no flaws in your application. Essays and recommendations are the tipping point.. make sure they're exceptional.</p>

<p>did u win Maryland Distinguished scholar??? i got honorable mention....</p>

<p>also...where exactly in maryland are you from? I want to know since i am also an applicant from marylandd (the suburbs of baltimore...catonsville). </p>

<p>Other than that...i tell you the same thing that i tell everyone else. Anyone with stats has a chance. By stats i mean the basics...like a 3.7 gpa, 2000+ sat, hard coursework...like other people said its all about essays.</p>

<p>Everyone has a chance. If you want to know how much of a chance?, you're question is impossible to answer b/c none of us here are qualified enough to tell you. we're also applicants too. :)</p>
