@astrofan, your stats are fine. Otoh, that’s probably the case for most applicants. Which prize at national level science fair? Btw, spellchecker errors are not a big deal here, and AOs are probably more understanding than they might have been in the past, but “since” != “science” :slight_smile:

Much will depend on your essays and your LoRs from teachers and GC.

Since it’s been a bit contentious in the past, do NOT submit your research papers. IMO, adding the title to your accomplishments is fine if they reflected your best work.

Good luck.
