<p>Have you looked at their common data set? It should say. I will try to find it.</p>

<p>Page 2, C7 “Considered” (of Very Important, Important, Considered, Not Considered)</p>

<p>Common data set? That sounds useful. I have no idea what it is though.</p>

23

<p>Okay, interesting. But it seems like “Considered” could mean a lot of things. Will being related to eleven alumni and a former trustee have a significant effect on my chances at admission?</p>

24

<p>I think you are over thinking this (but I’m not your shrink! Smile). How will any of our opinions change anything?</p>

<p>Good luck though!</p>

<p>Thanks. I know that the opinions of admission officers will be the only ones that matter, I just started this post hoping to get a better idea of where I stand–like I said, most people tell me that they have absolutely no idea how I will fare. Which is a little unsettling.</p>
