Should I bother to apply?

It looks to me like you already have the two essays done. So the rest of the supplement shouldn’t take that much longer.
And if you’ve noticed from the early action threads, higher scores doesn’t mean a person will get in over someone with lower scores. So it is hard to judge yourself against the other people on CC anyway.
If you don’t send in your application, you will never know what would’ve happened. I’m sure you will be happy wherever you end up, but come april 1, you don’t want to wish that you had applied to yale.
If you send in your application, the worst that happens is a rejection letter and you won’t go to yale (which is no worse than if you don’t send your application in at all). But you also may get accepted.
At this point, since you are done with the application anyway, i say you might as well send it in and see what happens
(I’m really bad with chances so i’m not even going to try. so sorry if that was really what you wanted in this thread, but i just thought i would tell you to apply)
Good luck!
