<p>i think you have a nice chance</p>

<p>i got in rd with a 3.63 and a 2270. my extracurriculars had more leadership and i had a great letter from my church employer. that was basically the only difference, though. good luck. </p>

<p>like you, writing's my strength, but i did all my essays at the last second, which almost killed me. fortunately, i pulled it off, but still.</p>
