General Comments: i feel pretty lucky to be deferred, it seems like the whole process is quite random in regard to qualifications</p>

<p>location: cookeville, tennessee</p>
<p>i applied to stanford RD...i can't believe how insanel and almost random the EA results are. good luck to everyone in April, and for those that got in--congrats!</p>
<p>I know seriously, it seems almost haphazard the people who were or weren't accepted.</p>
<p>what do you mean?</p>
<p>it boils down to the essays. unless you have awesome teacher recs.</p>
<p>i think dxu meant that a lot of people who were rejected or deferred had reeeeally similar stats when compared to some who got accepted.</p>
<p>it's just interesting cause Stanford is almost like, quirky in its acceptances. just an observation. :o)</p>
<p>Yah, what i meant is what vanilla1 said. Probably the recs or essays that was the major factor between similar applicants...</p>
<p>I got accepted!</p>
<p>Congrats! and good luck for those waiting decisions!</p>
<p>what does the rejection letter look like/what does it read?</p>
