"I think your odds are decent to good that one or more of the schools you listed will admit you, though I think your odds at Kellogg are lowest because of the weak extracurriculars (and would probably advise against applying there). Duke, Darden, and UNC seem the most doable to me, with Ross as a maybe and Chicago as a longshot but not an impossibility."
