<p>So I got deferred and so I was thinking if there is anything that I can do to tell the U Chicago people that I am worth accepting. </p>
<p>Also, does anyone know what percent of applicants have gotten deferred?</p>
<p>Get excellent first semester grades?
Other than that, I don’t think there’s much to be done. Unless you win some significant award or something.</p>
<p>i m not winning anything soon…</p>
<p>Ah, sorry man dunno what to tell ya. 
Best of luck in RD</p>
<p>better sat scores?? sorry bro…</p>
<p>I’m replacing all of my essays + getting straight A’s for my first semester grades. I think that’s all we can do now besides sit here and wait in agony!</p>
<p>Are you allowed to replace your essays?</p>
<p>Yup. I’m replacing all 5.</p>
<p>Ok, I didn’t know that. I wish you all good luck! Just keep in mind that you are all academically qualified enough to be accepted, or you would have been rejected EA.</p>
