<p>I’d like to think you’re in, especially if you applied early, since you’re hispanic and your SAT is good enough. I think maybe my only area of doubt would be the GPA weighted, though honestly I have no idea what the average for this year was, nor what the norm for next year will be.</p>

<p>But I’m feeling confident - only thing to emphasize is that you should definitely invest alot of time into the essays. Impress them and show them you’re interesting, even if your profile already says so. I’ve seen people with so-so GPA’s and activities get in because of their great short essays.</p>
