<p>Well, the good thing is that Chicago sometimes can be forgiving if you are lacking in one spot, such as test scores. I've heard that they actually don't even look at them (although I don't believe that). You have good grades and good ECs...</p>
<p>If you write an absolutely sparkling, witty, etc. essay, you will have an OKay chance. Don't let the scores bum you out too much.</p>
<p>That being said...</p>
<p>Take the ACT!!! It was more forgiving for me.</p>
<p>I'm doing RD, because I decided to apply to chicago last minute after receiving letters in the mail from them and such. I plan to continue rowing crew and running track at chicago if I'm accepted, which I indicated on my application. Thanks for the feedback.</p>
