<p>You sound like a fine candidate. However, what I don’t understand is that you offer to chance back…if you consider yourself qualified enough to chance someone back, then you should know your own chances are pretty good. At this point, the only people who truly know your chances are the admissions committee themselves.</p>

<p>That’s true. Sorry, I didn’t mean to come out sounding annoyed or condescending by any means…I forgot that tone doesn’t always convey on the internet.</p>

<p>HOWEVER, I still think you sound like a good candidate. Good luck in admissions!</p>
