<p>Check out this article that I happened on when trying to find out what the heck they want for the dear roomate essay. Apparantly, "a revealing story that gives a better sense of what makes her [or him] tick" is good.</p>
<p>great article, really insightful</p>
<p>How does Stanford interpret those with disabilities... specifically mental ones..</p>
<p>That article reveals a whole lot about things.........wow</p>
<p>this is a must-read for any stanford prospective undergrad!</p>
<p>That's what I thought, too</p>
<p>hey elphaba, I saw that article a couple of days ago as well:)</p>
<p>Whoa! Thanks for the heads up. It was really helpful.</p>
<p>Great Article!!</p>
<p>Yeah, it was really useful</p>
<p>it is very good. Bump</p>
<p>Here's a fun question: Which one of the student's in the article do you think your application seems most similar to now? I would say maybe Peter for me but with a little better stats/etc.</p>
<p>Haha Tom... Unfortunately he was rejected :(</p>
<p>Hmm..I dunno. It was quite insightful...but it was written in 1998. A lot could've changed.</p>
