Thank you for your advice! I really appreciate your feedback and yes the ivy league and other very selective schools are very random. I know people from my area who totally did not expect to get admission but got admission while other students who thought they had a very strong chance of admission be rejected.
Based on your current knowledge, do you think you might be able to give me a reasonable prediction on what is my chance I will get accepted into those schools I listed, especially for Yale SCEA, Michigan EA, MSU Rolling, and Stanford RD?
Just in case you don’t know, sorry if you do, the SCEA admit rate for Yale is 16.0% and the RD rate is 4.3%, while the RD admit rate for Stanford is 3.9%. Michigan’s acceptance rate for class of 2018 was 32.2% and MSU’s was about 65%.
