<p>So, has the application rummaging started yet, Chris? Or is it November 15th? Ah, I'm so nervous. . .when will I find out if i got accepted or not? Are the applications overwhelmingly high this year like Binghamton's or at all?
Thanks
[BTW, Stony Brook is doing deferrals right? Just in case. I assume my GPA will go up by the mid year report]</p>
<p>One more question - Does the application process base on the fact of how many people from my school are applying to the school itself? In my school, 8 people are applying to Stony Brook - 7 of which are EA. I rank, in terms of academics around 5/8 and for EC's and quality of application maybe round 1 or 2 / 8. This really worries me as I can't imagine the school accepting like 5-6 people from one school alone- a non competitive one at that. Last year about 4 people went so I guess I never know. Stony Brook is my number 1 choice, unlike some of the people that are applying from my school.
My question is . . . I really, really have passion to attend this school - should i schedule an interview?</p>
<p>We haven't started reading yet. Still too many papers to wade through, scan, and match up with applications. And yes, we're up also. Going to be an "up" year, unquestionably.</p>
<p>Your second post is a very interesting one. If a school sends us a hundred qualified applicants, then all hundred will get admitted; ultimately, we're looking for students who have shown the academic readiness to succeed here.</p>
<p>I'm going to blog on your question, because I think it's excellent.</p>

<p>Blog on part of my interview question?</p>
<p>Also, is it very well possible that the middle 50% from last year's SAT will totally jump?</p>
<p>No, your question that you asked. It's up on [url=<a href="http://www.theadmissionsblog.com%5Dtheadmissionsblog.com%5B/url">http://www.theadmissionsblog.com]theadmissionsblog.com[/url</a>].</p>
<p>And yes, it'll likely go up, I'd think.</p>

<p>cool! . . .Well that answers my question. . .
now i wait . . .</p>
