90% chance.. your legacy really puts you over the edge.. you will most likely get inn

I think that your chances are well above-average, but 90% is a bit outrageous, even for a legacy.

You'll be fine the legacy will get you in with your stats

DCforMe

while I'd say you're competitive for admission, I wouldn't be quite as confident as the posters above me. Your stats are fine. Your EC's however, are what gives the slightest bit of pause. They're good, certainly, but at the same time they're not anything especially out of the ordinary, nor do they demonstrate leadership beyond your own school. Like I said though, you're still competitive.

What school are you applying to?

dude: You are IN!!

I might agree with DCForME. Definitely keep pushing. Make sure to keep on trying to "prove" yourself. Never give up. Which of the schools are you applying to? Showing that you have a strong history of trying to advance yourself in the path of a future career is always a good thing... How active are you in Key Club? Community Activism is one of the most important parts of GU (other than academics). I think on my application my strong valuse of service were helpful (especially for the SFS)... Good luck!
