<p>Your scores are a little low for Stanford. You need SAT IIs. If you haven't taken them yet, it's probably too late.</p>

<p>Your activities look ok, but nothing seems outstanding. It is also difficult to plow through a list like that to try and to figure out which ones actually mean something.</p>

<p>Being AA will help you some, but I am not sure it will help enough...</p>

<p>really, chances threads are useless. if you want to apply, go ahead.</p>
