<p>ACT is good. subject tests aren’t half bad either. you’ve done well and the rest is up to chance - a solid chance though. good luck!</p>

4

<p>definitely have the numbers to get in, although SAT 2’s are kind of sub-par I’d say (but who’s to say that they are very important given your other stats).</p>

<p>If you’re going to call that your hook, you need to play that up and maybe talk about how you would continue that at northwestern specifically to show that you know what you are getting into.</p>

<p>Just remember there are tons of other applicants with those numbers and other ‘hooks’ just as interesting! Good luck!</p>

<p>good shot i’d say</p>
