Other than your test scores which are not an admissions consideration this year, you look like a competitive applicant. As long as you can pay $65K/year to attend, you are a solid applicant.

Best of luck.

May I ask why you chose not to take AP Spanish? Just asking, not judging.

I think you have really good chances, especially due to your unweighted GPA and class rank. You also have very valuable leadership positions and activities. Your SAT is on the low end, but you’ll be good to go due to test optional policies this year.

There is no point in taking this course since you have completed math through precalculus and are taking calculus now.
