chances?

<p>i was wondering if you could tell me what my chances of getting in regular decision are?
rank: 26 out of 779 (top 5%)
GPA- 4.5
SAT: math- 720
reading- 650
writing- 660</p>

<p>demanding course load-but not most demanding (I'm in all IB classes, but I am not IBDC)</p>

<p>Extra-curriculars:
JV lacrosse- 9th grade
Varsity lacrosse- 10-12
Student council- 11-12
Senior class vice president-12</p>

<p>GPA and leadership position as Senior Class President should give you higher than average chance despite below average 1370/1600 SAT. Your application essay re: "Why Northwestern" may play a substantial part in the ultimate decision. (An average chance in the RD round will be less than 25% in this most competitive college admissions year). Taking IB coursework, but not completing the degree may raise some slight concerns that should be addressed in your application.</p>
