[Fully funded Graduate applicant]

Hello all: opinion from the masses requested:

-military officer with 16 years experience

-MS (thesis)in chemistry GPA=3.4, Co School of Mines

-grad assistant at he National Renewable Energy Lab

-two years teaching experience at West Point (General/Analytical Chem)

-fully funded for a PhD for three years at school of choice; follow on assignment back to West Point as assistant professor

-applying to MIT, Columbia, Brown, Rutgers

-average GREs back in '04; let's just say not typical of your chem grad school applicant to tip tier schools

Thoughts on likelihood of being admitted to those programs?

Thanks and best to all!
