Blind to the Truth? My Chance?

I will deviate from the norm and say I don’t think you have a very high chance of getting in at all, especially considering that the admit rate is likely going to drop again this year. Unless your school does weighting very differently, even a W GPA of 3.7 (soph + junior year) is below what would be expected for a typical U of C admit, and I don’t see anything in the rest of your app strong enough to make up for that.

That said, if you have the money and time to expend, it never hurts to try.
