<p>I'm going to be mean, alright? </p>

<p>I think that you have a solid shot, but as you know, EA kids are crazy-crazy and have basically everything you could ever dream for. I think you may get deferred. Highly unlikely you get rejected/denied though. Don't forget to post your results! Best of luck!!!</p>

<p>As hard to believe as it may be, people do have much better stats and ECs. But yours, while not the object of perfection, are quite good so I'm going to say that if you're not accepted, you will most likely be deferred.</p>
