Dude…I’m sorry, you’re a white male trying for STEM…It’s just not fair.

I think essays/interviews/letters of rec will kinda decide the end result.

You do realize that these chance threads are useless right? Nobody here can predict or tell whether you will get into the college you want (accept maybe if there are any adcoms here)

Well, I wouldn’t call them completely useless. For one, I think that they could be helpful in letting a person know if their list is too reach heavy, or maybe if some schools that they are applying for are a waste of time and money (out of reach).

@ConcernedRabbit Yeah I think you are right. Guess I got a little mad
