Chances for Yale?

Admissions Officers learn about the kind of person you from the comments your teachers and guidance’s counselor’s write in their LoR’s – and AO’s take those comments very seriously. As you haven’t seen those letters or posted them here, it’s really impossible to provide you with any additional comments. Have you read this post from an MIT Admissions Officer? Everything in it pertains to Yale as well: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/massachusetts-institute-technology/939227-reminder-no-one-not-even-me-can-give-you-an-accurate-chance-at-mit-p1.html

I understand that “waiting is the hardest part.” However, given the odds at a school like Yale with an RD rejection rate of 95%, you should assume you too will be rejected. If in fact that does not happen at the end of March, you can celebrate with whoops of joy!!! Until then, what anyone says on this forum (or others) is meaningless, as we haven’t seen your file, nor can we compare you to the 30,000 other applicants in the RD pool. My suggestion: As you’ve already applied to Yale, leave college confidential for the next two months and go do something fun that will take your mind off of the stress of waiting. Best of luck to you!
