<p>I hate to say this, but in general, chance threads are not very useful, and not very many people like to respond. No one (I think) on this forum is, or has ever been, on an admissions committee. The opinions you will get will come from some who are very informed, and some who are not. Chances threads might be useful to get an idea of whether or not the range of schools you've chosen is realistic, but chance threads that target a specific school are not very helpful. If someone says, yes, you have a good chance, or no you don't, will that affect your application? Will you not apply because someone on CC tells you not to? </p>

<p>With that said, it looks like you have a pretty good shot (I guess?), but what matters is not my opinion, but that of the admissions committee. Good luck.</p>

<p>Agreed with above. What does it matter to you what we think? You clearly have a shot, with a good college average and a nice HS GPA. Best of luck - in the long run, it doesn't matter what we think.</p>
