<p>You are a good applicant, but kinda bland. However, you essay will really be the deciding factor. Your ECs are not great, but atleast you have a nice variety. You SAT and SAT II scores are very nice, so just try to define yourself.</p>

<p>u are not gonna get into anywhere. 750+760=1510 not 1310 lol jk. U have good stats but like u said the ec’s are kinda the regular.</p>

<p>You have an good chance. Work on raising that GPA a little bit, but the SAT is certainly nice. I understand the time commitment for your ECs (you and I share several interests and I know how time consuming Orchestra and Stu Gov can be). If I were you I would do more with the Spanish tutoring, as I think that will help “define yourself” as rmadden suggests.</p>
