<p>anyone want to toss their hat in?</p>

<p>Solid chances based on stats; just make sure you write good essays and you're set.</p>

<p>I say your chances are pretty average of a JHU applicant. Your grades are awesome. The only thing that is lacking are your extra-curriculars, they are spaced out and random. Starting the Destination Imagination program at your school, however, is something you might want to high-light in your essays. </p>

<p>I sincerely wish you the best of luck. :D</p>

<p>but thanks to those who did!</p>

<p>The reason for so few replies is that many of us consider chance threads to be a waste of time. It is impossible to assess one's chance of admission without comparing your credentials and attributes to the the entire applicant pool--which we don't have access to and which doesn't yet exist. The best one can say is that you appear to be qualified for admission--but so are the vast majority of applicants, including most who are denied admission. That's why you need to apply to a fair number of schools, and to a range of selectivity (i.e., reaches, matches, and safeties). Schools like Hopkins are reaches for most everybody (although slightly less so than HYPS).</p>
