@Jssaab1 — you miss my intent. I’m being obvious b/c so many posters don’t use common sense and would rather ask than discover for themselves.

thanks for sarcastically indirectly bagging on me! @T26E4

There are several guaranteed ways of being accepted:

  1. Be sainted by the Vatican before applying. No authentic saint has ever been turned down!
  2. Win a Nobel prize.
  3. Win three times or more on Jeopardy.

Otherwise, get good grades, good scores, and show that you are an interesting person.

OP, since you gave us none of your stats, EC’s etc., what did you expect people to say? Give us some information!

Nobody can tell you for sure except for the admissions committee, but it seems they’re big on well-rounded people who are impressive outside of the stats. So work hard on your essays (do the “optional” essay that W&M has on the common app) and have a teacher (or two) who you trust review multiple drafts of your writing.
