<p>But I can't say too much, because I had a Chinese friend almost exactly like you who I was SURE would get into Standford on EA, but then didn't fare so well. </p>
<p>Then again, every person is different. </p>
<p>I'd say a 60-80 chance, especially since it looks as if Stanford favors your school (eleven!), and you've hit most of the marks </p>
<p>Then again, it's Stanford. Nobody really knows what the heck goes on in their admissions office XD</p>
<p>Haha, varsity badminton! (For some reason I didn't catch it when I was reading XD) That's chouette~</p>
<p>Well I read that the relationship between colleges and high schools are that colleges like high schools that continually give them good kids, so they'd try to take as many in as possible so not to get on the high schools' nerves (do you understand? it's a bit complicated). Even if it was just legacy, your high school must have a decent relationship with Stanford anyway, so just because of that, Stanford should have more reason to take people from your school (...unlike mine... >_>)</p>
<p>Youre pretty intimidating. I'd say that you have a pretty good chance, but all that aside, your EC's are all over the place - there is no direction. Where are your passions? </p>
<p>About the EC, I forgot to include more info in my EC.</p>

<p>Sorry, I couldn't edit original post.</p>
