<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>You will get rejected from everywhere</p>

<p>i wish i was that good at chess, lol</p>

<p>you're good at all of them except Stanford, which you'll probably get into</p>

<p>Really!?! Thank you for the optimistic chance. Is there anyone out there who feels like being brutal?</p>

<p>Don't rule out Stanford so quickly. I think your passion for chess will help.
Stanford and Duke are your only reaches.</p>
