<p>Yeah i’m afraid so, if you got outright rejected from northwestern, your chances at yale, stanford, and georgetown don’t look much better. I hope you applied to some good safeties/match schools, because it’s not like you don’t have good credentials or anything. But georgetown is tricky, they’ve taken people who don’t look as good as you, good luck</p>

<p>ok thanks.</p>

<p>I am surprised you got rejected from Claremont.</p>

<p>I hear they had a 6.7% acceptance rate this year</p>
