<p>A 2020 is on the verge of 25%, but SAT II's are pretty good. Your GPA looks nice on paper, but lack of honors courses will hurt greatly. Extracurriculars are average at best...</p>

<p>Realistically, you better have some seriously good essays and recommendations.</p>

<p>I really feel as if you are wasting your time asking for "chances" to get into JHU. A better topic may have been to ask how to improve your chances.</p>
