Stanford 2014 SCEAers

<p>I still think it’s funny that they have so many more CCers compared to us when our apps went up and theirs down. Whatevs, haha.</p>

<p>Hmm. Well, how many QBers are there here? Maybe we could have a smaller QB decisions thread instead of SCEA, if there aren’t many? (Then repost their decisions in the official SCEA one?)</p>

lol my test stats are so bad which is why I didn’t want to post them. I guess to make myself feel better I’d like to add that I have a 4.0 unweighted and have taken the highest courseload possible at my school and I’m rank 1/439. Lol I know these others don’t count for much but I was also selected by the Boise State Chamber of Commerce to be in Boise Leadership Academy and done engineering internships thing so I don’t think I’m that unworthy of Stanford, but then again which applicant does?</p>

<p>oh wait my ACT is a 32, not that that changes much.</p>

<p>Diivio, will you pledge into the other thread? Or do you not want to post your stats when you get your decision?</p>

<p>And Stanford cares about test scores, but when I visited, they said that test scores are secondary to things like essays/recommendations.</p>

<p>I hope they do care about gpa, essays and recs as well otherwise I probably stand no chance. I’m not sure if I want to post my decisions stats when I get my decisions. Obviously I will if get accepted but to be honest If I get rejected I’ll be too sad to do it. I’m really sorry please don’t hate me guys.</p>

<p>if i get accepted ill visit them :stuck_out_tongue:
might as well save some money lol</p>

<p>same here I’ve got money saved.</p>

<p>here is the other thread Diivio,</p>

<p>Wow you guys have amazing test stats. I feel like an old man who has ED. Impotent and weak…</p>

<p>I don’t see a need to save money. They reimburse you for travel fair to admit weekend in April, which allows all those accepted to visit. (You don’t need to have accepted a spot for matriculation to go.)</p>

<p>I’ve seen people get in with scores and stats like you, Diivio. I mean, it’s a slim chance for any of us to get in, but I don’t see anything wrong with your profile.</p>

<p>test scores aren’t everything, but they do help
and a 32 is good last time i checked :S
at least i hope cause i got a 31 haha</p>

<p>what’s Stanford’s average ACT score, I’m guessing based on your guy’s stats around 33-34?
What about subject tests? 780?</p>

<p>Holisitic.</p>

<p>i wouldnt worry about subject tests, and i think the ACT range is like 31-34 or mabye it went up to 33-35</p>

<p>Yale’s is also scary to read. </p>

<p>And I second what Nitro Hawk said. Honestly, I think Stanford would rather have people with lower SAT scores that are interesting and have a personality as opposed to people who study all the time.</p>

<p>Oh, speaking of that, this break I went to see Harvard again, and the children in my tour group were whipped children zombies fulfilling their parents’ wishes. And the most competitive people I have ever met.</p>

<p>Not to brag, even if it qualifies as such, but I’m going to Stanford in a bit to meet with a current student to tutor me for math (yes I suck at the subject that applies the most to my intended major).</p>

<p>Here’s Stanford’s official statistics:</p>

<p>[Applicant</a> Profile : Stanford University](<a href=“Page Not Found : Stanford University”>Page Not Found : Stanford University)</p>

<p>Almost 20% of the admitted class had ACT scores between 24 and 29.</p>

<p>lol thanks for making me feel better but their Data set reports don’t lie. Apparently thought their middle 50% for ACT last year for 30-34 so I guess I’m not out of the running completely.</p>

<p>To Prussia: wow a good number of kids got in with scores lower than mine, lol that bolsters my hope just a little bit. Lol why is it that a 32 is in the 99th percentile with the higher ACT numbers. I was happy and confused by that when I got my score.</p>

<p>OH and I didn’t send in my SAT 1 scores, only sent in ACT and subject tests, so I guess they won’t see my SAT 1</p>

<p>PS:Oh well I’m done moaning about things I can’t change. I guess I’ll find out Dec 15th</p>
