Chances at Michigan

Hi, I am sure that this type of question is asked a lot so forgive me if I am boring anyone, but I am pretty curious. I want to apply to Michigan and I was wondering if someone could approximate the likelihood that my application would be considered "right in the thick of thigns". I know that nobody can tell me for certain whether I would or would not get into a school, but if someone could approximate for me the level of consideration I would receive from Umich Ann Arbor (low consideration, medium, high) with with the following:

Caucasian, White, Upper Middle Class, Suburban Baltimore, attending very prestigious/difficult inner city catholic college preparatory school.

3.75 GPA
700 Verbal
690 Math
700 Writing
AP US History 4
AP English 4
AP Gov 4
AP microeconomics 4
AP Euro History (senior year)
AP English Lit. and Comp (senior year)

This year (senior year) I will be taking introduction to calculus and Physics as well. There is a chance I might be able to take Honors Calculus, but for conservative estimates assume that I am only taking intro to calculus

Outside of School:
I did about 30 hours of service my junior year and a service trip this summer
I played on the tennis team and helped out with the basketball team (did not play)
Wrote for the school newspaper
National Honors Society
I have worked at a law firm for the last four summers

Please provide me with any suggestions and comments about my chances

You'd certainly fit right in with the masses, but you might have a harder chance of acceptance since you're from out-of-state. Your test scores are high and your GPA is a bit on the lower side, but that all depends on how your school calculates/inflates GPA. College admissions are a crapshoot... Hope you get in!
