<p>lol u get in 4 sure</p>

<p>…NAWT</p>

<p>you have a great chance dont see how they can deny you but with schools like stanford you can get denied for basically any fault they dont like.</p>

<p>thanks snapple thats really encouraging :)</p>

<p>Neone else?</p>

<p>Wowwww
i really dont know what to say
that is just amazing
the amount of things u have achieved is insane! :P</p>

<p>im thinking a 90-100% chance to get in :slight_smile:
id say 100, but u never know with stanford :L</p>

<p>tell us if u get in or not haha :P</p>

<p>I wouldn’t be surprised if you got in. Have fun at Stanford!</p>

<p>Thanks!!! Im so nervous about this app because i want to go to stanford soooooooooo bad</p>

<p>It also depends on your essays as well. Some schools like Stanford think that you might choose Harvard/Princeton/Yale over them. You have great credentials but keep in mind that with the top 5 schools, it’s no guarantee for anyone</p>

<p>Wow very impressive. Worst case scenario, which I think is unlikely, is that you could get deferred. Your chances are excellent. The only think that may work against you a little bit is your ethnicity, but I’d say you’re in.</p>

<p>You have a long list of EC, how much you could fit those in the common apps? As I know they usually don’t look at your resume, only common apps.</p>

<p>thanks guys! uhh well i will definitely put the most important achievements on the main commonapp page (i.e. siemens regional finalist and debate) but yeah hopefully they’ll at least glance over the resume i upload.</p>

<p>I feel pretty good about my essays because i have spent loots of time revising them
for teacher recs is it cheesy if my coach says that she wishes her kid could grow up like me</p>

<p>ya it cheesy like cheesecake factori</p>

<p>any mo chance?</p>

<p>Impressive!</p>

<p>I’d say you have a very good shot! Your depth and range of EC’s along with your academics makes you a highly qualified candidate! Best of luck</p>

<p>You have as good of a shot as anyone applying to Stanford. That is, everyone applying is just about qualified to get in, it’s just a matter of chance.</p>

<p>Good luck though, and let us know on the 15th.</p>

<p>lol damn i hate people like you haha. you have a great shot at getting in. apply to hypm for rd and youll definitely get into one of them if you dont get into stanford ea.</p>

<p>hatas gonna hate. no i dont think my resume’s that impressive but thx for the encouragement!!!</p>

<p>which part of my resume should i highlight???</p>

<p>and what do you mean a good a chance as anyone else?</p>

<p>I’d put you at around 75% chance= low match Your probably in dude.</p>

<p>I mean you got good GPA, good SAT, and the research stuff. Contrary to the popular belief of “OH MY GOSH, HYPSM is a reach for everyone,” you are probably match for stanford.</p>
