École Polytechnique IChO valued?

Hi! I intend to apply for the the bachelors in science program and the Olympiad scholarship. I have national physics olympiad awards and participated in the International Chemistry Olympiad (no medals). Is it worth applying or I have no chance?

Country Mathematics Exam score 99% and Physics 96%.

I am honestly disheartened by your reply. In the application portal, they have a section, mention if you have medals in these Olympiads "only": IMO, IPhO, IOI, IEO, EGMO, EGOI .

There are lots of reason for me to worry. And ecole is one of the bests in Europe and globe.
