Do I Have Somewhat of a Chance?

Of course all “chance me” threads are little more than guesses. My guess:

Without your hooks I would have said no based on your GPA and rank.

With your hooks, I think that you do have a decent chance. However, you do need to also have applications in or about to go in to other good schools.

Also be aware that Chicago is very demanding. One daughter has a good friend from high school who went there. I am pretty sure that he had never had a B in his life prior to going to university. He comes back in breaks and complains about how much work Chicago is. To quote a friend (who said this about a different but similarly demanding school): “You have to want to do it”.
