<p>yes, you’ll most likely get in. but be careful. i just got accepted this year, and after reading the data concerning the average sat score from two or three years ago, i felt i had a really good chance.<br>
early action rolled around and i was deferred, luckily i got in regular. the selectivity has spiked dramatically in the last couple of years. nothing is for certain. and my one recommendation to anyone applying to college is to apply to a lot of places. a couple of my friends applied to just the ivy league (or nearly as competitive) and just one safety (u. tennessee). all are now going to ut. they didn’t utilize a second tier.<br>
being hispanic will also help. and you’re ec’s seem pretty good to me. just emphasize that you are really active, instead of just a “lister.” and your sat scores will really matter. people say chicago’s all cool about not being a stats school, but i think that’s changing. you can’t have mediocre grades, decent scores, and a kickass essay and get in.<br>
and i took six ap’s this year, and i’ve been fine. i still have plenty of time for a social life. i wouldn’t worry about overloading. it never bothered me, although others would beg to differ.</p>
