Went to Summer@Brown to take a econ class to further explore the field of economics

Awards:
Mainly state-wide awards in several math, science, and writing competitions
A district award for cello playing

Right now, I'm slightly concerned about my grades, because they are on the low side because I did slightly worse in my soph/junior year.

What chances do I have at UMich (applying in September), U of Chicago, Brown, Northwestern, and Stanford? I really do like U of Chicago's Econ program, and I have MSU (Mich State U) as a safety.

Please don't bump me (if you do you might as well not be on this section of CC) and good luck with your apps!
