<p>I disagree strongly that applicant has outstanding chances. It seems that many are assuming that having great stats means having a great chance at getting in. Quite the contrary. If you’ll observe Brown’s statistics from the class of 2013, while keeping in mind that Brown had an acceptance rate of 11% that year, you’ll see that students with an ACT score of 33-35 were accepted 14% of the time. Since Chicago’s acceptance rate will be about 15 or 16% = 1.5 x 11% = next year, multiply that number by 1.5 and you get 21%. With no other information then, applicant has a chance of acceptance pinned at 21%. (However, even THIS is conservative, because 33 is lowest on the 33-35 scale AND Chicago has higher standardized test scores than Brown on average.) If you really think that 21% chance of getting into a school is great, then your definition greatly differs from my own. OP’s chances will rest mainly on essays.</p>
