Try to get your SAT in the 2000s or your ACT in the 31-33 range. Otherwise, you have a great shot I think.

Mmmm... reach, for sure. Your GPA is very good, and your ECs are ok. Your chances would definitely go up if you could raise your test scores a little, but I think if your essays/recs were awesome you'd stand a chance.
