On track for Stanford?

<p>Yeah, I agree with the poster above me. Considering that the average SAT score at Stanford is 2160 (check US news for the facts), a 2250 is great. What you really need to to is decide how you are gonna show some passion in your application. After going through the process myself, I think it truly comes down to EC’s and essays. Your grades and tests speak for themselves, so there really is nothing to do there. Everyone that applies to Stanford has great grades and scores, so they won’t help you.</p>

<p>Take that huge EC list you have and focus on what YOU LOVE the most. If you start making huge lists, I believe many adcoms look at it as an attempt to get into college rather than a true representation of yourself. Just talk about your passions. Don’t list every single award you won, or everything you did on your application, because after a while, they will start to wonder whether you did this because you WANTED to, or because it would LOOK GOOD on an application. </p>

<p>You have everything set, it all comes down to your essays and how you will present yourself. EC’s and their representation, are key, remember that. I wouldn’t steer you wrong man. SCEA, class of 2012. Trust me.</p>
