You have a good chance. Do you want to go? If you could see yourself there send an app. Otherwise focus on killing this semester.

Thats too broad. a 4.+ is spectacular depending on where you are. What is the median line? Keep that up and you could have a Harvard transfer in sight

Then it depends on the school if you could get higher than Chicago. But I cannot see them saying no to a student on a B+ curve who got all As and A+s
