<p>I have bad extracurriculars but good stats, and the lady who came to our school for the college visit said that Northwestern weights the numbers more so my fingers are crossed for that to be true. That doesn't keep me from worrying, though :( There's a lot of people (30 or so) applying ED to NU this year, and typically our school takes 12-17 from the 60-70 total that apply each year (majority are taken ED).</p>
