Do I have a chance at getting into the University of Michigan?

[heyjealousy]

I just finished my junior year and next year I'm applying to the University of Illinois (IL resident..), University of Wisconsin, University of Michigan, Northwestern and Michigan State. I know my chances basically for all these schools except UMich so I would appreciate anything you could tell me.

My GPA is a 4.05 weighted, 3.76 unweighted at one of the most competitive high schools in IL ... we don't give out class rank. I have a 32 ACT score. I've taken mostly all honors or AP classes, and I have a tough senior schedule.

I've been playing basketball for 7 years, soccer for 11 and softball for 10. I play basketball and softball for the school. I'm in the theatre club, NHS and an editor for the yearbook ... I volunteer as a softball coach and at the hospital.

I want to major in biology and hopefully go to med school in the future.

So, what do you think? Do I even have a chance? I know they weight their GPA's weirdly so I really don't know.

As I'm sure you know Michigan is a pretty hard school to get into. However, it's acceptance rate is 50% (that includes in-state students, so it is a little bit lower for out of state), but that is still pretty high. 35% of the student body is out of state, which is pretty high for a public school like U of Michigan.
What this means...your ACT score is high (98th percentile) your GPA is quite high and you took a ton of AP courses. Your ECs are pretty good.
I think you have done everything possible you can to get in (assuming you have good essays, teacher recs, etc.)
I would give your odds at 75-80% chance of getting in. MIchigan would love a student as dedicated as yourself. I also live out of state and know kids with lower GPAs and lower ACT scores who have gotten in from my school.
