<p>I was in the same position as you a year ago, trying to guess what my chances were. All I can say is: it doesn’t work. It’s almost impossible to predict where you’ll get in and why. I actually got rejected at my safeties, and got in here. If you think you have a good enough record, apply. Take your exams, fill up your ec list, come back to us if you have doubts and then fill up the common app and apply.</p>
