You have a chance....but you might unfortunately be lost in the applicant pool. For a lot of people, the essay portion allows them to stand out, but you say you didn't do well on it.

I haven't gotten a phone call from Deerfield, does this mean there not interested? They said they would call if they had any questions about me. Ahh!

I know it's essential. I was wondering though about how they said they would call me if they had any questions. Today is the 2nd of march and they haven't called. I'm wondering if I won't get in because they haven't bothered to call me to ask questions.

@ mandy: do you live near Deerfield? Or probably not more than a 5 hour drive?
If yes, and if you are really determined in getting in, GO. Ask your parents to drive you. It's crazy, I know; but since it's crazy, it will definitely make you outstanding, courage and craziness wise.
If no, take the initiative to call DA first. M10 is approaching, and adcoms are very busy. Eventhough they probably lay you off, they will know that you are really interested. And perhaps give you a spot as a late applicant lol.

MonochromeAddict: I don't have any connections to the school at all. 
jyun212: I live about 3 hours and 45 minutes away but it would be impossible to go there because my mom works so much, from 8 to 6:30, and so there would be no one to drive me. I'm not sure about your idea to call them, I mean they might just get annoyed. What do you mean by lay me off? I submitted my application on time so I don't see how I would be a lat applicant.
Thanks.
