<p>good EC's is very vague.
to your opinion, it could be good but to an admissions officer it might be different.</p>

<p>what courseload?</p>

Various honors and APs over the years.</p>

<p>Anyone on this? I was shocked he was deferred.</p>

<p>I say 50/50 chance...but who knows? hahah</p>

<p>Columbia: Slight Reach</p>

<p>Why would you be surprised he's deferred? He seems like a typical deferred applicant to me.</p>

<p>i'm not surprised he was deferred.
i know people with higher stats who were also deferred.</p>

<p>Doubt he'll get in - he's got no hook and uninteresting ECs + unless he does something to improve his chances in the RD round there is nothing to suggest the decision will be any different</p>

<p>because you can really tell he has "uninteresting EC's" from the phrase, "good EC's"</p>

<p>If the only listable thing is being cross country captain and I'm assuming that is his best EC - then yeah, they do not stand out by elite schools standards.</p>
