<p>Math scores are the only place where you might have a problem. The middle 50% is 670-770, so your's is a bit low. You also didn't mention how many APs you took. </p>

<p>Other than that, everything looks fine. You have a shot. I wouldn't worry about addressing the republican --> democrat thing, unless you want to list Young Dems or something as an EC. </p>

<p>Good luck! :)</p>
