Lol, given how anyone can apply to Stanford, there’ll be lots who miss the mark.
And it doesn’t matter if a tippy top college formally admits by major, what you say and show (or not) does matter. It reflects the applicant’s thiking. Or not. You think you get into a classics major with no Latin? Engineering with only precalc? Just for saying so?
How do you think a humanities kid is weaker with AP math and science? Or conversely, that an engineering kid gets into a tippy top holistic with no AP humanities.
