First of, big congrats on your acceptance! I do want to mention that I don’t think you should just assume that all the waitlisted people who only posted their stats for reference had no other outstanding extracurriculars. they might have had great ECs and a good “big picture” too. Assuming that people who achieved high GPAs and SATs were waitlisted because they didn’t have anything else is slightly unfair. @aliciacuad
