Toffee:

Wow. You fall outside the parameters of my prognostication skills.

On the one hand, I look at your class rank and have to say that it’s an extreme longshot. On the other hand, being published in Ladies Home Journal as a high school student “ain’t exactly chopped liver” as they say back East.

I have the sense that you may be among those applicants who don’t lend themselves to a “What are my chances?” thread.

All I can say is give it your best shot and love thy safeties!
