Stress mock trial on your app. I know my S's acceptance letter mentioned that he was Capt. of mock trial team so I assumed they really cared about that.

I think your chances are as good as anyone else's. One never knows at institutions. Make your essays sing. Send recordings of you playing the clarinet. Leave no stone unturned.
