<p>You have the scores and the EC's and probably the essays to get in and succeed at Yale... The truth is that no one knows chances. </p>

<p>Pretty much everyone I think who comes on this board is intense about gaining admission to a school. All we can do is put ourselves in the best position possible and hope...</p>
