<p>“1/32”</p>

<p>Wow, that’s small. </p>

<p>Anyway, you’ll probably get in :wink:
That’s a crazy amount of community service, it will make up for your grades/test scores, if necessary (not that they’re that bad).</p>

<p>excellent community service
lackluster scores and leadership
I’d give you 50/50 between accepted/waitlist. I doubt you’ll be rejected off the bat</p>
