Chances at Stanford

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Alright, I don't have much info to give right now... but I'm asking questions right now.</p>

<p>Does Stanford look at High Schools and understand when it's not a "college-prep/competitive" type high school?</p>

<p>Say I go to a public HS with only 5-7 students, class size of 500+, who get 4.0 GPAs unweighted.</p>

<p>Say I get a 3.8+ GPA unweighted.</p>

<p>Say I took only a few AP courses since my school only offered Junior/Senior year.</p>

<p>Say I score only a 2000 on the SAT and SATii.</p>

<p>Now, say I make top 100 nationally in an event or two for a sport (in my age group).</p>

<p>Do I have a chance at all of getting in? I'd like good replies and reasons why please.
Should I have 3 years or 4 years of a foreign language (I'm in my third year of a foreign language).</p>

<p>Oh yeah, I'm out of state.</p>

<p>depends what sport. if it is ping pong, then maybe not. unless youare valuable for your sport skills. then no.</p>

<p>i don't know why youre withholding so much info...
but your numbers are low, but fine if you can get recruited for your sport</p>

<p>"only 5-7 students, class size of 500+, who get 4.0 GPAs unweighted"</p>

<p>That's a ton of kids to get 4.0 UW GPAs, at least where I go. Anyway, have you looked at any of the other posts on this forum? If not, go check the other chances threads, then make a post that is helpful and specific.</p>
