<p>What’s the point of asking us to chance you? You obviously know how good you are I mean great gpa great sat, ap scores ec…</p>

<p>but I know how competitive the top schools are these days, and I feel like my stats would average if not below average right now. so I’m looking almost for feedback on how to improve my chances…</p>

<p>No way to improve. You are doing well. But when someone is a competitive applicant applying to extremely competitive schools, it’s nearly impossible to predict whether or not you’ll get in.</p>

<p>You certainly have good chances, but remember to apply to matches and safeties, as well, just in case!</p>
