<p>It brings up your post. Don't do it until your thread is on the next page :P.</p>

<p>I don't know about your chances, but I would apply because, well, I can guarantee 100% that you won't get in if you don't apply.</p>

4

<p>wow, great stats, i think u have a good chance..</p>

5

<p>wow, 2370!!! That's amazing. Makes my 2160 look like crap. I think u have a great chance</p>

6

<p>thanks :)</p>

<p>haha i was SO surprised when i saw that score lol
i got a 2180 the first time and i was just aiming for 2250</p>

7

<p>I honestly believe you made this thread just to inflate your ego (that's fine but don't act like you have no chance at Stanford when you clearly do).</p>

8

<p>Everything is strong. It's all based on your essay now.</p>

9

<p>thanks guys
i'm mostly worried about my essays
and because Stanford apparently has a quota of 2 people from my school :(</p>

10

<p>I'm more worried than you. xD I have an 1850 on the SAT and even there's no quota at my school, the guy that's also applying has a super application and is in everything.</p>

11

<p>Why is there a quota??</p>

12

<p>because my school is REALLY REALLY competitive
lol lots of asian people
and we're in the bay area
and stanford wants to be 'geographically distributed'
so unfair -___________-</p>

13

<p>I live in the Bay Area? Do you attend MSJ?</p>

14

<p>no MVHS
lol there was an article in the wall street journal called 'white flight' about how too much asian competition is causing people to pull their kids out and put them in private school.</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure we're going to have at least 100 people applying to Stanford.</p>

15

<p>Competition never hurt anyone...</p>

<p>You have nice chances, are you one of the top students at your school?</p>

16

<p>lol we don't rank because then people will 3.9s will feel bad</p>

<p>but i know i'm in the top 20 GPAs at school
and in the top 4%
(because i'm ELC for the UCs)</p>

17

<p>MVHS = Monta Vista?</p>

<p>I'm in the Bay Area too.</p>

18

<p>lol yeah monta vista</p>

19

<p>do my ECs sound ok?
just because i actually know kids from my school applying to who have jobs at Stanford labs, are applying for patents, and have rec letters from Stanford professors -____-</p>

<p>Well, it's not going to matter since you get your results in 12 days. Just relax.. :)</p>
