Chance me?

Chance Me / Match Me
1

I’m an international student applying to CMU, WUSTL, Notre Dame, Cornell (pretty sure I won’t get in but doing it anyway) and some other matches and safeties and I already got into Penn State. I did interviews for Cornell and WUSTL and will be doing another one with CMU. I’ve also been contacting CMU’s track coach about walk-ons. What are my chances? Here are my stats (they’re not the greatest):

ACT: 31; essay: 10
SAT II Math 2: 770
SAT II Physics: 720
GPA: (currently) 4.5, cumulative for past three years 4.3
APs: AP Calc BC 5; AP Chinese 5; AP Lang 4; AP Studio Art (drawing) 4; AP Bio 3
Current courses: AP Lit, AP Stats; AP Gov; AP micro econ, AP Physics 1; Ap 2d design

EC:
USC 4 week Pre-college architecture program (2016)
Track (D3 level)
Cross Country (Made state sophomore year)
Badminton (national level)
Founder and President of school Animation Club
(I have a longer list but these are the main ones)

Community service:
TA for elementary school English grammar class in 9th grade
Taught elementary school kids art weekly in 11th grade

Portfolio: I did an alumni interview with Cornell and he really liked my portfolio. Of course, I do realize it doesn’t mean much since he’s not the ultimate decision maker.

so… chance me?

ACT is kinda low. Everything else seems good. These are reaches but anything could happen. You definitely have a shot but don’t expect too much. Very strong essays could definitely get you in. What matches are you applying to?
