<p>...
You're perfectly fine. Honestly, you have nothing wrong, why are you bothering to ask. It's obvious you're looking for people to compliment you and say "Oh, you have great chances, I wish I could be like you!!!" NO. Not going to happen. Go brag to someone who could possibly care, like your parents.
Happy New Year, dear.
Oh, and what WERE you worried about?</p>

<p>ouch, that's a little harsh, cheeseviolin. Don't you think it is what these 'chances' threads is for? Sometimes even when you have really good stats you're still ot confident that you are good enough especially knowing you are competing with an exceptionally talented group of people. Take that as an intro and welcome her to the forum, nicely.</p>

<p>Sorry, to both of you. Didnt mean to come off as harsh, just trying to be honest.
Tennisgirl, you have great chances. Don't worry so much and work on essays insteadd.</p>

<p>um cheeseviolin, I had similar stats as she did last year and I still got waitlisted at the schools I was applying to. It's perfectly fine to worry, it's better than being overconfident.</p>

<p>you have a super good chance! but were your interviews good? i know someone who got into deerfield who didn't have very good ec's, great grades, great recs, and super fabulous ssat scores, except his interviews didn't go too well. he got waitlisted in all the schools he applied for except for deerfield... i think he got in because he went to eaglebrook, the "feeder" school to deerfield, but idk... i could be wrong. maybe his deerfield essays and stuff were good.</p>

<p>The Interviews went pretty well. Andover wasn't the best; I didn't to too well. Exeter was great. Deerfield was very good. The only one I am concerned about Andover.</p>
