Anything “helps.” The real way you are going to get into a University (in this case Rice) is by presenting enough information about yourself and presenting yourself in a way so that the admissions office regards you as valuable and realizes that adding you to the class of '13 is going to be benefitial to everyone.
Anyone can always say yes, you have a great chance. But that does not guarantee admission. I would say you have a great chance, depending on your essays and if you continue your passion of science and research into these essays and throughout the application.
Good luck.
