<p>In actuality, this is a very good idea, because it will enable others to more quickly see the decisions and get stats, without having to wade through chat posts (and the lengthy AA discussion, as well.)</p>
<p>Decision: Rejected</p>
<p>Stats:[ul]</p>
<pre><code>[li] Fee Waiver Used?: No[/li][li] SAT I (by section): 770 CR, 780 M, 800 W[/li][li] SAT IIs: 800 Math II, 800 Physics, 780 US History[/li][li] GPA, Weighted and Unweighted: 4.0/4.1[/li][li] Rank: 1/138 (tied)[/li][li] ACT: N/A[/li][li] APs (including this year's): Calculus AB and USH both 5s, taking Biology, Calculus BC, English Literature, Macroeconomics, and Stats in May.[/li][li] IBs (including this year's: N/A[/li][li] Senior Yr Courseload: Hardest possible[/li][li] Number of Apps from Your School: Only mine[/li][li] Other stats (Awards, etc.): NMSF, random school awards[/ul][/li]</code></pre>
<p>Subjective:[ul]</p>
<pre><code>[li] ECs listed on app: Novel writing, computer assistance, mock trial, other stuff (filled it out, I didn't think they were weak)[/li][li] Job/Work Experience: 2 summers part time, 1 winter part time[/li][li] Essays (subject and responses): Main about building computers, others thought it was very good. Three supplementary essays were also very good, according to others.[/li][li] Teacher Recs: Good and very good[/li][li] Counselor Rec: Was terrible, but only because the letter was atrocious. He didn't put much time into it.[/li][li] Interview (feel, interviewer and general location): N/A[/li][li] Hook (TASP, RSI, Research, etc.): None, obviously[/ul][/li]</code></pre>
<p>Location/Person:[ul]</p>

I'm not sure why, but I guess it wasn't an easy year to get in. Also, AA didn't help me, or any white candidate, at all.[/ul][/li]</code></pre>
<p>Other Factors:
General Comments/Congratulations/Venting/Commiserations,etc: Annoyed, very annoyed, especially at them for lying on their website. Whatever, I'm hoping that one the east coast Ivies will see something Stanford didn't, or at least give me a boost due to Oregon's lack of representation there.</p>
