<p>huh? why did u get defered?</p>

3

<p>well i honestly don’t know…but I do know that most of the ppl who got in who posted on the forum had scores that kicked my butt!!</p>

4

<p>i would like to think that being azn would not hurt me…but you never know…i guess my scores are low for an azn…</p>

5

<p>btw there’s a typo… your unweighted gpa is higher than your weighted.</p>

6

<p>thanks…how do u change it in the original post…not the most technologically savvy person…</p>

<p>Hit “edit.”</p>

<p>Your stats are great, but not the “stellar” kind that you find in the Ivies. I’d say Princeton’s a reach / slight reach. Also, your ECs focus more on non-academic-related things. The deciding factor in your app would probably be your essays and recommendations.</p>

<p>thanks…I didn’t really know that playing soccer and violin would hurt my app seeing as soccer takes about 26 hours a week as well as all my summers. My essays were ok I think…one about my brother, one about my first Tae Kwon Do tournie, volunteering with an autistic kid, one about my ensemble that raises money for kids to buy instruments…i am also not wealthy and applied for aid from princeton…thanks for feedback!</p>

<p>Well, I don’t think it’d “hurt” your chances – it does show characteristics about you, especially the nationally ranked bit, so that is kinda hook-ish. I just noticed that many of those admitted had more academic ECs.</p>

<p>Every one of your stats is better than mine and I got in RD, so you have a good chance.</p>

<p>With a 9% acceptance rate…it’s impossible to predict. SAT-wise, 2100 2200 2300 get in while some 2400 get rejected. Valedictorians regularly get rejected. It’s just that sort of school O.o</p>
