Chances and shot at getting merit money.

<p>My school only offers 6 AP classes, and one of them is AP Calc which I’m not far enough in math in to take anyways.</p>

<p>As for Chicago, I have been told–and others have confirmed–that standardized test scores are one of the least important parts of the application. I’m hoping that my essays, recommendations, and solid courseload/grades will make up for that deficiency. I plan to be a classics major, not a math major–so I’m hoping that they’ll take that into consideration. :)</p>

<p>How soon do you think I should submit my application? It’s pretty much 100% ready–I just need to wait for my parents to give me the $$ to pay the application fee.</p>
