<p>Looks like a pretty impressive record--I'd say very good chances esp since you attended the ND Summer Program. You might mention it in the app and any professors you were impressed with during that program. I def think it helped son when he applied!</p>

<p>The volunteer work will stand out, though perhaps not enough to cancel that 2140. If you improve that score to something above 2200 and send in a well-written essay, I would think that your chances would be fairly decent. AL's comments seem solid. Even if you get a 2400 though, don't be overconfident. The essay counts for more than the SAT, and ND can and does reject perfect scores.</p>
