Chance me? (RD)

So I'm not sure how much I actually want to go WashU but I'm wondering if theres any chance that I could get in.

ACT: 31
SAT: 1960 (waiting on latest results)
SAT II: US History: 780; Math I: 630 :/
GPA: weighted: 4.1; Unweighted: 3.75*

Total of 8 AP courses over last three years and toughest courseload available at HS.

ECs:
Secretary of French Honor Society
3 year member NHS
3 year member of Journalism Honor Society-Quill and Scroll
3 years volleyball team
3 years nationally ranked school newspaper (Asst. Views editor, Academics Editor, In-Depth Editor)
Editor-in-chief of award-winning literary magazine
Vice-President and Co-founder of Animal Welfare club
AP Scholar w/ Honor
Part-time job

*county changed grading system this year, previously a 6-pt scale, now 7-pt. with added weights to honors courses (.5) and APs (1.0), hence the inflation.

So...odds?

and the only thing I could see as a problem for the OP is the ACT, which is WashU's range anyways so you should be fine. But you never know!

WashU cares a lot about how you want to go to their school. You need to demonstrate to have a prayer.
