I think it’s worth applying since you’ve clearly shown in junior year that you’re able (and willing) to do the work. Chicago and Penn will be reaches (although for Chicago, it kind of all depends on the essay), but you might have a pretty decent chance at CMC, Grinnell, etc. If you want to go somewhere other than your in-state public, it’s definitely not a waste of time to apply. Especially to LACs, which will be more inclined to review your app holistically and therefore pay more attention to your much better junior year.

Chance back?
