<p>In grade 10, I took AP Computer Science A and got a 5 on the exam. I had to teach the class to myself because the teacher left.</p>

<p>Your “stats” are sort of like mine. I think it just comes down to teacher recs and your responses in the application at Stanford. You should have taken SAT IIs before though(for your other colleges), Stanford doesn’t require them I think.</p>

<p>those scores and activities aren’t a absolute reason to accept you
