<p>Other Factors:</p>

<p>General Comments: very surprised when i got accepted, since my gc said it was a reach, my older bro didn’t get in with very similar stats (but he had lower SATs), and people here and at my school more qualified didn’t get in. but w/e.</p>

<p>I don’t really have a top choice, and I was preparing myself to be deffered at best. So it’s nice to know one of the more selective colleges on my list accepted me.</p>

<p>Anticipation???
SO???</p>
