<p>starmound and Hoggirl…statistically you both have higher probability of admission in the regular round than the regular applicants…so hang in there…since in past they have taken ~13-15% (from the numbers I have heard quoted) from the deferred list…</p>
<p>last year the deferred list was only 572 students…this year it may be slightly higher…either way, Stanford defers very few (those who truly have a CHANCE) compared to other schools which seem to defer almost every Tom, Dick, and Harry…to string them along for no particular purpose…</p>
<p>…wish you both continued success…and please INFORM Stanford admissions of any significant achievements/developments that come along during your senior year…</p>
