3

<p>I'm completely useless as far as all this chancing goes, but...</p>

<p>"He's also gay/bump!"</p>

<p>HAHAHAHA. That made me laugh.</p>

4

<p>Haha glad we could make you happy.</p>

<p>But alas, tis the truth</p>

5

<p>Pretty good shot at Stanford EA, great shot at Columbia ED.</p>

<p>haha I hear colleges have an affinity for gays (adds diversity).</p>

6

<p>I think you should EA Stanford.</p>

<p>It really depends which school you like better because you'll get into both.</p>

7

<p>Columbia ED - match/high match if legacy is for reach
Stanford - reach for all but still good shot</p>

8

<p>Stanford = reach
columbia = better chance</p>

9

<p>which school has the better early acceptance rate?</p>

<p>does anyone have hard numbers?</p>

10

<p>for Columbz the ED acceptance was 24.4% last year
for Stanny (tranny) the EA acceptance was 16.1% last year</p>

<p>sooo....</p>

<p>ps. this is about me!</p>

11

<p>bumpppppppp</p>

<p>You have great E.C.'s, no doubt. I would question the SAT II scores but I don't think it's too big of a deal.</p>

<p>I would say you're definitely in Columbia. As for Stanford, it's a crapshoot for all but I'm leaning towards in.</p>

<p>For HYP--reach/crapshoot, depending on your essays & recommendations. The rest of the schools will likely be matches/safeties.</p>
