<p>i’ve been stalking this thread for weeks so i thought i should post that i was deferred as well. i’m disappointed but i was kind of expecting it.
congrats to everyone who got in!</p>
<p>deferred…i’m pretty upset about it but i guess thats just how the river flows…looking at people’s stats who were deferred makes me kind of pessimistic about RD unfortunately but good luck to all of the other deferrals and a huge congratulations to the acceptances!</p>
<p>My son was accepted to the college. 4.0 unweighted, 800cr/770m/770wr; high 700’s on SAT IIs. the other stuff is subjective. Now if he would only finish those other 7 apps…(5 Ivies, stanford and duke)! But at least he doesn’t need to apply to the schools lower down on his list!</p>
<p>Wow reading this board, I have no idea why I was accepted… A lot of people seem way more accomplished than I am but were yet deferred… I was counting on doing that bake sale with you guys! Lol</p>
