<p>You dont have to submit your SAT II's if you took the ACT with Writing. Also your ACT score is on the low side...</p>

<p>Chances threads aren't helpful. Either you get accepted or you don't. Good luck with your application and I hope you are a proud Rice citizen next year. :)</p>

<p>Anxiousmom is right - no one can predict what an admissions committee will decide. You'll never know if you don't send the application, so just go for it. Good luck!</p>

<p>Physics Olympics-2nd place</p>

<p>As in USAPhO? Cuz if so you might wanna put that a little higher up on your EC list...</p>

<p>no...it was districts. but me and my friend were the only girl team and we beat 14 teams of boys in the human powered water heater. its a myth that the strongest team wins this competition so it was kind of cool that we beat all the teams. thats what my common app essay is about...and I tied in stuff about stereotypes</p>
