Your stats look good, but Benn also really considers whether you would be a good fit in terms of the academic structure. Have you interviewed, or are you going to? Your essays will be important, and they want to know that you can handle the freedom of designing your own education. In recent years there are many more qualified applicants, so it has gotten harder to get in to, but being a male should help! Good luck
