I don’t know Ohio State that well, but I looked up some stats on it just now (not the authority you’re looking for, but I hope this helps).

Ohio State has a 54% acceptance rate, and probably more in-state. Their 25%ile ACT score is a 28, so you’re not much below that, especially if you can raise it a point or two. Your grades are good, maybe a lot of B’s first semester, but that’s not so bad considering that you’re taking full IB classes. You’re a first-generation college student, you’re involved in a lot of clubs and cultural activities, you have a job, and you go to a competitive private high school – those are all good things too!

Talk to your high school counselor and ask him/her what your chances are, but IMO, you should be fine. Make sure you apply by the early deadline and have a backup.

Good luck!!!
