Stanford / Columbia / Yale / Harvard Chanceme

I totally understand where you’re coming from. I guess I’ll just have to wait until the results come back to see how they process this!
I wrote these essays in a bold and persona with a touch of spice and heat. Since Stanford is a more liberal / quirky school, I thought admissions would appreciate that we know Stanford isn’t perfect and that there’s so much we need to improve as a society. I didn’t write my essays to rub-it-in, embarrass, or offend others. I mainly used this sort of diction to create an effect, to make the reader experience the jarring pain that I felt. Hopefully these essays will help distinguish me into the 4.8% category!

I guess they liked my Trump poem, essay on mice, my experience in sexual harassment essay, Minecraft essay, and my social justice essay :confused: I ended up getting in Stanford after being deferred

For princeton/harvard/columbia/caltech/uchicago/yale/northwestern/brown, I got waitlited/denied. For those schools, I used pretty safe/traditional “why essays,” talked about coding/webdesign, and wrote about social justice.

Overall, I got in Stanford, UPenn Wharton, Duke, Berkeley, and Wellesley.

You are a perfect candidate for Stanford! I went to Stanford and you have a great stacked resume for it. But apply to them all.
