Good luck with admissions! You really don’t ever know until you try, you are definitely capable and DO have a chance of getting an admittance - but again, these schools only have enough seats for the amount of qualified applicants who want to get in. Admissions looks at all of these factors in context, so your ACT scores are more than passable in the context of the other facets of your application. Test scores are a smaller part of the admissions game than people really should consider them to be. (Recommended Reading: The Overachievers by Alexandria Robbins - that book will put all of these into an amusing and somewhat depressing context.) Either way, you’re definitely set on going to an amazing school! Chicago is a wonderful city.
