I thought tufts was gonna be released tomorrow but I just checked anyway and there it was. I totally screamed when I opened it!!</p></li>

<p>Rejected</p>
<p>:(</p>
<p>Decision: Accepted</p>
<p>Stats:</p>
<pre><code>* SAT: 650M/640CV/680W (Essay 9)
* SAT IIs: REALLY BAD
* ACT: 29
* GPA: 3.66 uw
* Rank: no idea...probably top 15% in class of 40
* Other stats: 4 AP Bio, 3 AP US
</code></pre>
<p>Subjective:</p>
<pre><code>* Essays: really good

* Counselor Rec: not sure again, probably not as good as the teacher recs
* Hook (if any):
</code></pre>
<p>Location/Person:</p>
<pre><code>* State or Country: OH
* School Type: Private
* Ethnicity: Filipino
* Gender: Male
</code></pre>
<p>Other Factors:</p>
<pre><code>* Extracurriculars: Student Council President, Youth Advisory Committee President (VP junior year), NHS, bunch of varsity sports, etc.
* Why I think I was accepted/rejected/waitlisted: The interview went really well, which may have pushed it over. I think my EC's really made up for my very subpar SAT I and II's.
* Other thoughts: Got rejected from JHU right before, so this lightened up my day :) I had only taken the ACT once, and was going to toss my test scores out right after i had taken the English (first section) because I didn't know what to expect and paced myself very badly. But after the other sections, I did well. So I ended up with a 22 English (ouch, essay bumped it to a 23 though), 30 Math, 32 Reading, 32 Science. Congrats to all that made it :)
