<p>very strong GPA, good ECs and essay with recommendations can make up for the SATs and a 30 ACT (which isnt THAT bad imo).</p>

<p>good luck</p>

<p>did u apply ED? cause if u do that could increase your chances alot.</p>

<p>Even RD seems like a decent chance.</p>

<p>Your gpa is very solid, your test scores are a bit below average, and your ec's are good. If your essays were good, you should have good chances. Like Zlakhani said, your chances would be very good if you applied EDII.</p>

<p>Good Luck!</p>

<p>Agreed. Good chance, even if you didn't apply early.</p>
