I go to a private catholic school near the suburbs of Chicago. BC is one of my top schools (business major) and I am unsure of my chances of getting in. Any input would help.

GPA: 99.40% (approx 3.95)
ACT: 31 (34 English, 33 math, 33 science, 23 reading, 11 on writing).
Superscore: 32 (same as above w/ a 28 on reading)
EC: Varsity hockey (6 days a week, 20-40 hours a week, 75+ games a year), varsity lacrosse, spring hockey, window washing (job), national honor societies and about 4+ clubs that I am actively involved in at school.
Classes: APUSH, APLAC, AP PHYSICS LAB C, AP LITERATURE AND COMP., AP COMPARATIVE GOVERNMENT, Pre-CALCULUS H, SPANISH IV H, plus the honors courses that were offered my freshmen and sophomore year.
Essays: Spectacular.

What do you think are my chances of getting in? 16 other kids from my school applied. I understand my reading score is low, but applying for a business major and granted that they take superscores, I don’t think it will be the deal-breaker. Thoughts? Thanks.
