You’ve already applied and there is really nothing you can do now. So keep working at school, and lining up alternatives in case you’re not accepted.
Nothing that anybody writes here is going to help you one way or another, and this is simply pushing you to invest emotional energy that you really should be using for other thing.
Good luck, and find something else to occupy your time.
The fact that you began this thread with a lowercase letter demonstrates that you are not taking the college admissions process seriously. As the admissions representative of the Santiago campus at Stanford, I find that insulting. Also, do you really think that being ranked in the top 40 in your below average high school is impressive?? I think not. Also referring to “outdoor stuff” is incredibly vague and one again demonstrates how you think this whole process is a joke. Get it together and start showing that you actually care. Have a nice weekend <3!!!
