Stanford!!

<p>I am just a sophomore in high school, but I want to know what were the stats of people on here who applied and/or got in. </p>

<p>Thanks! :)</p>

<p>then check the stanford thread and read for yourself</p>

<p>Here’s a link to Stanford’s Common Data Set. Scroll down to Section C for statistics about freshman admission. [Stanford</a> University: Common Data Set 2009-2010](<a href=“http://ucomm.stanford.edu/cds/cds_2009.html]Stanford”>http://ucomm.stanford.edu/cds/cds_2009.html)</p>

<p>^Good stats, but note that they are a few years old. The school has become even more competitive. Stats have gone up.</p>

<p>Also note that academics are only part of the application. Good test scores alone wont get you in, ECs are also valuable.</p>

<p>Stanford is the most unpredictable school where stats don’t matter.</p>

<p>This is the most recent common data set:</p>

<p>Note that it’s less useful to look at numbers for Stanford, which tends to emphasize essays more than its peers (which is why it has such an essay-heavy supplement). If you look at threads of student stats (search the Stanford forum for “decisions” in the thread title), you see lots of students with sub-2200 SATs - and yes, even Asian students. You also see plenty of students with ridiculously high SAT scores rejected or waitlisted, even when they get into another HYPM school.</p>
