Gutrade

I got rejected from Stanford. I didn't even get deferred!

My Stats:

1600 SAT I
800 MathIIC/780Chem/800 Writing
4.54 GPA/ 4.0 UW
Rank 1/433
ECs: Captain of varsity soccer team, Newspaper editor, President and founder of philosophy club, Vice president of science club, intern for state senator, volunteer work for local wildlife habitat

After getting REJECTED early action from Stanford and not even deferred, I have lost all confidence in the college admission process. I didn't even apply to Berkeley and now I'm scared that I don't have any solid safeties. Can I still mail an application to Berkeley late and have them consider it? I live in New Jersey and I had no idea Berkeley's application was already due. Most colleges have January 1st deadlines.

If I end up going to Berkeley I will be sure to yell STANFORD SUCKS with all my might!!! Who the hell do they accept anyway?!
