<p>after this years mishap w/ business admissions i don't think anyone can give you a solid answer to whether or not you have a solid chance or not.
In my opinion: YOu have a so-so chance.</p>

<p>Does your high school have class rankings? Because if you're GPA puts you in the top 10% of your class, you're chances are better. My advice to improve the chances of getting admitted is to apply as early as possible and to make sure you don't blow off the application as though U of I is a safety. I have a feeling that some students who pretty much had the grades and test scores to get into U of I might have neglected the application, subsequently hurting their chances of admittance.</p>
