<p>I'm a senior this year and I'm applying to JHU. </p>

<p>I worked in a lab through junior year (a few prizes), a lab during this past summer (50+ hours per week), and am currently working for two labs right now.</p>

<p>I have a few other extracurriculars: Red Cross president (900 + hours of volunteering), founder of two other clubs, etc.</p>

<p>Do I have a chance of getting in with my ec's? How much will my lab experience help?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for any help!</p>

<p>I think you have an excellent chance! Of course, you can have a perfect application and not get accepted- but your stats look great!!</p>
