-Anchor on local TV Station Grades 10-present, executive producer of this TV station currently.

I’m applying to either International Relations/Journalism/Political Science

I’d want to get some kind of idea of where I stand in comparison to other Stanford applicants, and whether I have a decent shot at getting in and if it’s worth applying. Thanks!

What’s your demographic? Depending on that, you have anywhere from epsilon to 1-epsilon chance of getting in.

You are definitely qualified stats wise. It’s hard to predict Stanford though.

You are a very strong candidate, so you should for sure apply there if you want to go there. Reach for everyone though.

Thanks for all the replies! I was also wondering if speech and debate is “overused” in extracurriculars?

Your ECs are what they are. Some applicants have speech and debate experience and some don’t.
