[/ul]General Comments: Besides chancing me, do you see any ways I could improve my app? Is there anything that doesn’t make sense to you that I should explain to the adcom?</p>
<p>your numbers seem very solid. I’d say that your acceptance depends upon your ability to express yourself. The adcom likes to see development, which I think shows in your extracurricular activites, but I think you’re basing the chances of your acceptance too much on superficial figures. They’re looking for specific qualities that aren’t necessarily displayed by good scores, e.g.: intellectual vitality. I guess as long as you can prove you have depth, personal awareness, social consciousness, and initiative as well as smarts you’re probably among the more well qualified of the applicants. But then again, in the words of the Stanford website, “there is no specific formula.”</p>
