<p>I think you have a good shot!!! You never know unless you try. I am applying and I have not taken as many APs as you and my standardized testing sucks really bad. But I am still going to apply. William and mary is my dream school, I wished I could have applied ED but my parents would not let me. your EC look great and you have done most of them for 4 years and colleges like commitment so give it a shot!!!</p>

<p>Definitely give it a shot. The act score is pretty good, but the gpa is a little bit concerning. The fact that you have struggled in math and science courses may be a red flag to them, I don’t know. Being outside the top 10 percent in your class may hurt you as well, but you have great extracurricular activities. I think it all comes down to how strong the applicant pool is and how well you write. Good luck, I hope you get in.</p>
