Still the same as regular applicant.

Your classes are probably in line with most applicants. The grades you have come out to a 3.5 UW and Stanford’s average is closer to 3.87. Stanford is a reach.

this just seems like a huge brag because you don’t offer enough information to let people judge you. We need SAT/ACT, EC’s and hooks.

Taking a bunch of AP classes will not make your more qualified for Stanford than an applicant that takes only a few but excels at each. AP classes show rigor, but for Stanford you also want to get A’s in all of these classes. What else to do you have to offer? GPA/Test scores/EC’s??

Stanford cares about who you are outside of class (EC’s, essays, etc) more than those AP classes. We really need to see your whole profile to get a sense of your chances.
