<p>Great job with ECs (XC, piano, and especially ping pong). </p>

<p>Gotta say, you seem almost exactly like my friend who also applied for Stanford ED but got rejected. Sorry if that sounds discouraging, I'd just say you have about as good a chance as any Stanford hopeful. Although I do think your athletic record may put you ahead of the curve. You just need a great hook to stand out more.</p>

<p>Plus that friend is now going to Harvard so all's well that ends well...</p>
