<p>can some of accepted please post their stats?</p>
<p>Are you In state or OOS? You'll find that OOS grades, test scores, etc. need to be pretty high to have a shot here. Good luck. D was accepted, in honors program with really good SAT's, >5.0 w GPA, class val; etc., but that's not required to be accepted if you are from UNC.</p>

<p>I think my ECs, essays, and recs are really what helped.</p>
<p>sats: sat m800 v710 w690 mathii 750 physics 730,</p>
<p>gpa uw 3.4 w4.3 rank 24/500. competitive hs in ct which sends like around 3% of the students each year to either ivies or top 20 schools from the us news rankings</p>
<p>essays: pretty good, lol at least i thought. my english teacher also liked it
recs: 1 really positive but not specific from guidance, 1 from my english teacher, really really good. one from math teacher...it was pretty weak (short unspecific) but at least it complimented me haha</p>
<p>obviously my stats arent that impressive, compared to some of the other ppl from oos, but my ec's were probably what put me in ahead of some ppl with better stats than me. activities included campaining for joe lieberman, regional honor band, math team captain/team third place finish in division, co-founder/vp of an economics club, internship at uconn under grad student gov and helping them with an internal audit, and financial things... key club, soccer/track (tho nvr lettered), salesman for electronics</p>

Stats
680M/720R/730W
School doesn't rank (45 kids in my senior class)
3.74 unweighted (5 Bs 9th grade year, two afterward)
5 APs taken freshman and sophomore year (5,5,4,4,3)

<p>ECs
President and Founder of a canned food donation club, President of our Model Congress team, Student Court senior justice, FIRST Robotics head of marketing, newspaper, NHS, speech & debate, etc.
Out of school activities - lots of orchestral stuff, volunteer at a fair trade store
Without counting work in school service clubs, over 500 hours of community service</p>
<p>Essays: long essay- of my choice, wrote about my violin teacher, spent a very long time on it, short essay- narrative, presented a juxtaposition... where my grandfather was when he died versus where he had been (mainly described him looking out his window). I still feel that both of them are the best essays I wrote for any application last fall.</p>
<p>For junior in-staters in here, I'd say that it's true, you should make sure your stats are solid, but make sure that your coursework is challenging, you are devoted to at least one or two ECs, and you put serious thought into your essays and who will write your recs.</p>
