[ *] Why you think you were accepted/wait listed/denied: honestly the essays were not bad at all, and I just believe myself to not stand out. Think of it this way: I blend in with everyone at my school with similar class rank because we do all of the same ECs (not even kidding). Unfortunately, i’m the only one of them who didn’t get in straight away. Let’s hope this year is a good one for wait lists.</p>
