<p>Summer,</p>

<p>I don't really know how to "chance" people. However, you sound like a terrific person with solid stats & great EC's who would be competitive at many places. Of course being Hispanic will help you.</p>

<p>Did you visit CC and did you write a strong essay about exactly why you want CC?</p>

3

<p>I haven't visited CC yet and won't apply til next fall because I'm still only a junior. I plan on visiting sometime in April.</p>

4

<p>Oh, great, because I was confused by your grade 12 EC's listed, thought you were a senior.</p>

5

<p>You sound like a very competitive applicant. There is never any guarantee of admittance, but I think that you will be seriously considered here. </p>

<p>Definitely visit before attending (INCLUDING an overnight). I found the social life to be very unique.</p>

<p>Thanks so much</p>
