<p>First off, it would be good to know the college. Second off, 15 hours of service won't really mean anything. And second off being a few points behind the percentile shouldn't hurt you that much but if you can it would be good to try and up it a bit. I'll try to help you some more once you give the college.</p>

<p>I think you are a high match/ low reach. Unfortunately your SAT scores are low. Also try to make it look like you are interested. Other then that you really can't do that much. Good luck though.</p>

<p>Your rank is probably much higher than their average applicant so you should have a decent shot. Do they publish what percent is in the top 25% of their high school class?</p>

<p>This site gives you some basic stats. As for moderately difficult? I'm showing a 72% acceptance. </p>

<p>As long as you have an OK SAT (Above 1300?), you should be fine.. as long as you wrote your essay with better grammar than used in teh post.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
