<p>Thanks a lot for taking the time to read this!</p>
<p>ttmaster, you are on the right side of the bell curve of Yale applicants. Your scores are extremely impressive, and your extracurricular activities are blatantly insane. Your chances are very very good. I would say at least 75% chance, if not more.</p>
<p>December 15 will tell all, though, and on that day none of these made-up statistics are going to matter.</p>
<p>I wish you the best of luck, ttmaster.</p>
<p>Have you taken Subject Tests?</p>
<p>if you didn’t, say bye-bye to yale.</p>
<p>I’ll chance you under the assumption that you’ve taken them. </p>
<p>Your scores, grades, and ECs are uniformly outstanding. You have about as good of chance as an hooked candidate can hope for.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot silverturtle, and veryprospective. Your comments definitely made me feel a bit less tense about dec 15. </p>
<p>Also I did take sat2’s. Since I don’t know how to edit my first post I will just write them here.</p>
<p>Math 2-800, Chem-790, US Hist-780</p>
<p>Thanks again!</p>
<p>I’d peg you at around 70-80% chance at Yale.</p>
<p>Your ECs are stunning. As I see it you’re definitely a hooked applicant. Let’s see how everybody goes on Dec. 15th :)</p>
<p>You are not a hocked applicant. A hook is much different than an amazing qualification. You lack leadership roles in your community but your other qualifications are without a doubt extremely impressive and unique. You have an extremely competitive shot at acceptance. Good luck!</p>
<p>Wow! You definitely have the stats to get into Yale and your EC’s are incredible. I mean normally a person has national awards in just 1 area, but you are nationally known for your compositions, table tennis, and chemistry. You have a really good chance!</p>
<p>If I don’t get into Yale, I’ll know it’s people like you who really deserve it more than I do. Congrats for all your accomplishments; you probably have the best chances anyone can hope for.</p>
