<p>If your essays were good, and your application made it apparent that you are really interested, and not using it as a safety school, I would say 95% or very likely.</p>

<p>Heh, i have similar stats. Perhaps i’ll post them after i hear back from chicago sometime during this coming week. My most demanding ex curric is being a volunteer firefighter. I devote atleast 14 hours a week to this and i volunteer at an ER, and am in a buncha academic programs in hs one of which takes only 3 kids from my class of 800+ (i think it was 848 but i forget). SATS 760 math 670 verbal and 720 writing (1430/2150) i didnt submit any SAT 2’s, im an indian immigrant and i’ve been in the states for less than 5 years so i guess the verbal score is excusable.</p>

<p>I really want to go to UChicago, and i’m really hoping it works out. Good luck to you christine, i’ll post my full stats if anyone really wants me to. Just pm me to do it or something :-)</p>
