I think you are fine to apply this cycle.

Thank you so much... Gives me hope.
Would you say my ECs are strong?

Yes I would but honestly everything is strong. I mean I think the average gpa is a 3.5/3.6 but I had a friend with a 3.4 get in. You DAT is really good but I heard some schools do prefer higher scores in specific sections but with a AA of 22 you should be fine.

Just get some good LORs and don’t have a run of the mill Personal statement. Try to apply as early as you can I mean PRONTO and to as many as you can.

Good luck, you’ll be fine.
