<p>My chances at Stanford, however, are the lowest among the colleges that I applied to.</p>
<p>Stanford is the only college that I will guarantee I am getting rejected from. @#$%…messing up my record…>.< And I was so happy in the morning too!!! >.<</p>
<p>^My school has 1 student accepted there every other year. Guess where last year’s sal went? Stanford! So…not working out. 
</p>
<p>And if they do accept me (5% chance) then there is about a 1% chance that I will go. So .005% chance that I end up at Stanford. Idk why I’m bothering.</p>
<p>good luck, guys. hahaha i remember when this announcement came during the early action round…oh my word i almost fainted</p>
<p>(i’m legitimately nervous/anxious/etc for all of you, fyi…i really DO wish you the best)</p>
<p>^ Are you from California?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Don’t forget that different schools look for different things in their applicants – in addition to the inherent degree of unpredictability.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Appropriately so.</p>
<p>
Yes, I live in the Bay Area. Why?</p>
<p>Also, Handala…Stanford and HYP stress different qualities in their applicants.</p>
<p>AHHH!!! I’m freaking out now!!!</p>
<p>^Lol…my sentiments exactly. Good luck to everyone!! <em>touches wood</em></p>
<p>How do you check for the decision???
Do you goto the Axess website?</p>
<p>It’s sent via e-mail.</p>
<p>everyone from my school got straight up rejected early… chances not good</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Californian applicants have a distinct advantage.</p>
<p>Hey, that only means that the chances are better for us! They have to accept someone, right?</p>
<p>
Not Californian applicants with ~0 ECs?</p>
<p>Right, I didn’t think so. :S But still…I can always hold out hope for the next <em>checks clock</em> 55 minutes. :D</p>
<p><em>Actually, that’s some comfort. Thanks mifune!!:]</em></p>
<p>Mifune, where did you get the impression that “Californian applicants have a distinct advantage”? I don’t believe that is correct.</p>
<p>Everyone has told me that Californians get the advantage… but i don’t know</p>
<p>Good luck you guys. REA reject here. Double waitlist today at Amherst and Vassar. (FA int’l)</p>
<p>Whatever happens, be proud that you applied!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I would prefer that they be proud of their accomplishments rather than of their sharing them. :)</p>
