<p>love the Seinfeld club- wish we had that at our school. :D</p>

<p>the recruiting process for athletes is over anyways so it doesn't really matter. your EC's are strong but there is no "hook". your academics are strong as well. apply and you'll have a decent shot.</p>

<p>"But I'm not doin' so hot in these classes as of now" - that has to cange...</p>

<p>Unless you screw up your grades this semester, you should have a good shot at it.</p>

<p>You've got an interesting list of ECs, and it does look like you've been quite active. I wonder what you will focus on in your essays, and what you hope to get across about yourself.... I think you've got a good chance. Good luck!</p>
