<p>to those deferred or rejected: it's Rice's loss...if Rice doesn't work out for you, you'll be happy wherever you go; best of luck, deferred, you still have a shot :)</p>

<p>tookie, by "flimsy", i meant it was light and thin...</p>

<p>tookie, im so sorry to hear...i hope your son will attend the perfect college! good luck to you all</p>

<p>Thanks, Collegekid88. The sad part was this afternoon I was up in MD Anderson Cancer Center in my dad's room looking out at the Rice Stadium as I talked with S on the phone. He opened his Rice deferment letter and conveyed his disappointment over the phone but said that he would be OK. I was expecting him to be accepted but it's just not to be. BTW, at the hospital, I keep looking around at the doctors and nurses, wondering which ones were Rice undergrads - they are all so wonderful here.</p>

<p>Utop,</p>

<p>These were my "stats,"
SAT1--1470 (750v/720m)
SAT2--Writing: 740, US History: 730, Math IIC: 680
GPA--3.96 unweighted.</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK!!!!!!</p>

<p>Congrats collegekid and the others...I hope you all will read the thread in the Parents section that I started a thread about. It shows that there are many, many places to be happy, and that things tend to work out for the best...hope you all have a great holiday season. I am so excited that my S gets home from boarding school tomorrow after a grueling exam week!Tabby</p>
