Would you give it a chance?

I agree. The new-found love for learning might make a good essay. You can also incorporate AD and that DemiDec thing. Your other essay sounds like a winner too!

The rec from your AD coach sounds proising, but I also agree that getting a rec from a techer you don’t know is kind of… risky. It’d be better to get a glowing rec from a teacher teaching a lower level class (like say reg Bio or Bio H), than getting a generic one from an AP or IB teacher.

Figuring that you’d have great essays, recs, and maybe a higher 2200+ SAT score, I’d say your chances might be good–despite a low GPA and scattered ECs.
