<p>Bull ****. 4.8 and 2390 SAT… im calling BS on you! Lol. It isnt possible to get more than a 4.2 at my school :(</p>
<p>I’m sorry to change the subject, but I really like the blue folder… and the way it smells.</p>
<p>Decision: Accepted</p>

[<em>] Major Awards (USAMO, Intel etc.): National Merit Commended Student (if that even counts). I hate competition.
[/ul]Subjective:[ul]

[</em>] Volunteer/Community service: 75 hours of tutoring on every subject imaginable, 15 hours a year of library work, and I am my school’s unofficial photographer for shows.
[<em>] Essays: Probably the highlight of my application. One focused on my obsession with language and the other on all the weird people in my life. Took risks - it got me rejected from Stanford, but in here. You’d think it would be the other way around, you can never tell these days who has a sense of humor.

[li] Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: I came off as less of a smart ass on the application than I do on here.[/li][/ul]General Comments: Congratulations to all that got in, and even more congratulations to those who didn’t. Rejection totally sucks, I know firsthand, and you’re all awesome for getting through it. Don’t leave it to any admissions committee to determine how much ass you will kick in the future.</p>
<p>@maxoutt</p>
<p>I honestly think your lying…there are so many people applying to UCLA…why would they choose someone with stats like yours with no ECs over people who have EC’s and much higher stats.</p>
<p>Why lie and try to skew the results and data? In reality, you know you did not get admitted.</p>
<p>Were talking 55,000+ so they can choose the top, top people.</p>
<p>I got in with relatively low stats 3.95 GPA and 27 ACT and 1690, 1900 retake. But I had a lot of extracurriculars and leadership positions. But then I missed most of my Junior year and while I was at school I was on medication for a Pheochromocytoma. :[ But had hundreds of hours of community service :]</p>
<p>1900 is stil plausible… so yeah</p>
