<p>I’d say your chances are pretty good. You seem qualified academically and your record with chess seems really impressive. Now, nothing’s a sure thing with schools like Georgetown, but I’d say your chances are pretty good, provided nothing unexpected comes along with essays, recs, and the interview.</p>

<p>EDIT: How are you a six-time state champion?</p>

<p>That goes back to middle school. I’ve won 3 times in HS and 3 times in middle.</p>

<p>Does it matter that some of my titles were won previous to high school?</p>
