Good enough for Vandy?

<p>I am a senior in high school, just visited Vanderbilt and fell in love. I live in east Tennessee. I realize the admissions process is extremely selective and was wondering what my chances of being accepted would be. Here is a little about me:
I am extremely driven and school comes first to me. I am second in a class of around 450 with a 4.0 unweighted GPA and 4.4 weighted (I have taken as many AP as I could with my schedule). I have only taken the ACT once last year, scored a 34, but will retake in October. I have been playing the cello since 6th grade, have been in chamber orchestra at my school all four years and I am decent (not especially amazing). What I am worried about are my extracurriculars and volunteering because I had not been predominantly involved in these categories until my junior year. I am student body vice president (involved in student council as of sophomore year) and was junior class VP last year. I am involved in other clubs (like beta, foreign language, future business leaders of america, and math club (treasurer)), but have not taken interest as much until last year. As of this year I began tutoring my neighbor (paid) and volunteering to tutor after school a couple days a week. I also volunteer at an animal shelter every weekend, but only started this near the end of last year. I am really angry with myself for not starting some of these activities until last year (mostly because I was so focused on academics), but I cannot change that now. What do you think my chances are?</p>

<p>Hey, I am a current Vanderbilt student. If you can raise that ACT to a 35, I believe you will absolutely get in. As you stand, I believe you still have a very good chance. Anchor Down! Hope to see you here next year. </p>

<p>thank you so much I will work on it!!</p>
