<p>How do yall feel about your chances with roughly only one week left? Especially us EA Deferees, what's going to become of us? Do we have a better chance than RD applicants or lower chance? Ahh, so much confusion! The pain, the misery, the agony...</p>
<p>In the letter they sent it said that we had about a 10% percent chance. I'm not feeling too great about getting in though. I'm from South Carolina...is anyone else from SC or the south? I've noticed that people in this area tend to lean more toward Duke, Emory, etc than Stanford.</p>
<p>I'm not too thrilled with my chances, to tell you the truth. I'm trying to make myself feel comfortable with USC, just in case...</p>
<p>Pretty much zero. Whatever.</p>
<p>I'd say 50/50 right now.</p>
<p>I'm optimistic.</p>
<p>I'm not sure about my chances at Stanford, but being deferred instead of rejected gives me optimism for my other schools. How about you guys?</p>
<p>Same here MorsVenit! The deferral definitely means that I'm could potentially be up to par with a Stanford quality student. Hopefully, this statement will be corroborated in about a week!</p>
<p>I was pretty confident I wouldn't get into MIT, especially after I got deferred, and I got in, go figure. So everyone always has a chance, and furthermore its not that important in the end anyway. Life is about you and your goals (and a few other things), not about what the admissions office at some school in California thinks!</p>
<p>Those few others things are, namely, respecting the rights of others and your responsibility to this planet and its people. But a lot of people would debate me on that point.</p>
<p>I don't know if you guys are feeling like this, but I remember feeling completely sure of myself at one minute and feeling so depressed the next second and then feeling unsure...and it catches up to you. I found it so hard to concentrate in school! ;) Actually, that might just have been the early stages of senioritis...</p>
<p>Anyways, good luck to all of you!!! I'm so excited to hear your decisions!!! :D</p>
<p>Best of luck! I guess that's all we can give huh....</p>
<p>You know, it's funny, because for several years, Stanford has been my son's first choice, and we were constantly hoping he would get in. But since then, he's gotten more and more excited about two schools that are matches -- schools he will almost certainly be accepted to. At this point, he almost hopes he doesn't get admitted to Stanford, so that he won't have to choose between it and one of the other schools. I have a feeling if he did choose another school, there would be people (teachers, friends) who would think he was nuts.</p>
<p>I too am an SCEA deferee. I hope I'll get the opportunity to meet some of you awesome people!</p>
<p>yea im with trinsf -- stanford was my first choice but deferral made me take a second look at other schools. im actually glad i didnt get in early or i wouldnt have considered other options. and im under the impression that our acceptance rate is basically equal to that of the reg decision pool. im pretty sure they put us back in the pool and have someone else reread our apps</p>
<p>yeah. i'm considering other schools now...some higher, some lower. bahhhh i am going to combust by thursday, i just know it. and then some more as i wait for stanford's decision.</p>
<p>I'm feeling pretty confident - having just gotten into Caltech, I'm feeling a little more like some other top schools might be accepting (as an SCEA deferree).</p>
<p>Wow frickin' great I got waitlisted almost everywhere. Only one rejection and five waitlists.</p>
<p>I really don't feel confident at all. I think I'm going to Duke (or Penn, but prolly Duke)...hope to death I'm wrong, but...</p>
<p>I was just accepted into Dartmouth, rejected from Harvard - but Stanford is stilla first choice. When I enter my pin - my deferrral letter from Dec is still there. Is this true for everyone who was deferred?</p>
<p>yep 10char</p>
<p>That'll change soon :)</p>
