<p>in without any question</p>

3

<p>Incredible! Ha ha, yeah. You have a fantastic shot.</p>

<p>As for me...</p>

4

<p>Start packing those bags. There is no way that they can reject someone with your accomplishments unless your teachers hate you or something</p>

5

<p>of all these that i've been reading (here and on yahoo) you are the best i've seen. I happy you do a sport too. though stanford is kind of a crapshoot (my friend jenna in '06 with equivalent qualifications got rejected straight up) i think u have a better chance than most. 3/4</p>

6

<p>check that, youre hispanic, youre in. not to be racist but we all know it matters. and you are a hyper-qulified hispanic. it just helps u more.</p>

7

<p>Wow. Just wow. You're ridiculous, but in a good way. Yeah, good luck...</p>

8

<p>now you have impressed me the most out of all those i have seen on this website. i think you have the best chance of what ive seen so far. your ecs show focus, drive and real passion (not some superifical laundry list of ecs.) for example, volunteering at a sci museum when your interested in science makes much more sense than some other form of volunteering. now the big quesiton--how do you manage this all? are you still normal? do you still have fun? they will be looking for that--i have an insider perspective who told me they still look at this--just hope that your quirky, lighter side came out in your app.</p>

<p>Your stats couldn't be better. You're in as far as I'm concerned.</p>

10

<p>I have never seen better stats than yours....in without a doubt</p>

11

<p>Thanks for the encouragement, guys... I guess we'll see how everything turns out. Best of luck to everyone applying!</p>

12

<p>Yep you're in for sure lol</p>

13

<p>Yep you're in for sure lol</p>

<p>Yup. Definitely in without a doubt.</p>

14

<p>In In In In In</p>

15

<p>If you're not in then jesus couldn't get in.
But yeah... very nice stats. I feel so underqualified!!!
Congrats and good luck!!</p>

16

<p>the only reason stanford would reject you is because you are too good (for stanford, don't expect anything to be normal)</p>

17

<p>haha stockguru is soo right
stanford would reject you because you're too good
not really... but if a top school were to do that, it would be stanford haah</p>

18

<p>im curious...did you get a likely letter from stanford?</p>

19

<p>I am totally jealous. J/K...Great stats!! I am almost certain that you will get in.
I wish you the best of luck from the bottom of my heart. :)</p>
