<p>Very good stats, are you passionate about anything? Try to look at your resume and think of an interesting angle that you can come from in your essays to distinguish you from the stereotypical intelligent Asian, which Stanford gets overwhelmed with.</p>
<p>your academics look pretty strong. from your ecs it seems like you’re dedicated about track, which is good. I think stanford looks for passion in ppl & if you’re really good at one thing. A girl from our school did a lot of swimming stuff(her team won national championship) & another girl was really good at tennis(state ranked) and they both got into stanford.</p>
<p>Your stats are pretty much in line with what they look for but without a hook, well, you are just like everyone else. Your stats aren’t extraordinary, meaning they don’t make you stand out from all the other high achievers, when it comes to Stanford. So you got to make yourself stand out.</p>
