Your ACT is good. A 9 in writing doesn’t matter one bit. GPA is incredible. Regarding your ECs, they are really generic and pretty typical for Asians. You have a chance, but I am not sure how high it will be, as you do have some attractive leadership positions, but nothing else is exceptional. Write a great essay and get good letters of rec, and just try your best! Luck may be on your side! GL!

Good gpa and scores! In my opinion you need to get involved in ECs that have to do with your prospective major, in order to manifest your passion in it. While your ECs are already good and inpressive this is what I would advice you. With good essays and LoRs of course you have a good shot in all of these schools. However keep in mind that they are reaches for everyone so find some matches and safeties as well. Good luck!
