<p>Ehhh, you’re a great candidate. You might make it. No promises. Seriously, dude know one knows the magic formula to get in.</p>

3

<p>You have a very impressive academic/extracurricular career, but what’s “EA”?</p>

4

<p>Early Admission!</p>

5

<p>^^ actually early action.</p>

<p>Yeah, you do. You’re such a good candidate that it’s actually boring.</p>

6

<p>Holy crap you are golden. Well not unless you write a kick ass essay, and have a great interview. However there is no absolute chance that you get in so you technically are not golden. What I meant by golden was “wow you have a great, but indefinite chance!”
Sorry :P</p>

<p>omg i don’t get this people who feel the need to be chanced and post stats like yours… of course you’re problably in… and if you don’t get in at Yale you’ll probably get in Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, MIT or any other Ivy, that’s a 100% sure friend…</p>

<p>Good luck!!! Congratulations on your performace, all of your stats are awsome</p>

<p>Go for it! I’m glad you’re considering Yale!</p>

9

<p>you’re competitive (but, posting a thread like this makes me think twice!)</p>

<p>Your stats are solid, much like everybody else. BUT NOT EVERYBODY ELSE HAS A PUBLISHED BOOK. That puts you at a HUGE advantage. I’d say in! Unless you mess up on apps, which is quite impossible since I suppose your writing is fantastic. Try for Harvard too!!!</p>

<p>even if you wing your essays, your ECs and Grades/APs are quite strong
you should be a shoo-in; dont sweat…just chill over the next year</p>

Do not make this mistake and think your essay’s are not important. This may be THE most important aspect of your application. Many high stat applicants are rejected as they feel their stats alone will get them in. This IMHO, is the biggest mistake they make by not spending a lot of quality time honing their essays. This is what will separate you from the pack so take it very seriously. My son spent weeks on his essays with multiple redrafts and feedback from reputable critics to perfect it. He didn’t have perfect stats but he did put forth his best effort in conveying his passion through the essays.</p>
