<p>“How good are the essays accepted by Stanford?” — ummm, along with the other recs and metrics, they were good enough.</p>
<p>There really isn’t an answer to this question if you think about it. A “great” and stimulating essay bundled with mediocre transcript will lead most likely to a reject.</p>
<p>This is only one sliver of your overall picture – asking how “good” were those that Stanford admitted – that just seems to be a bizarre question to me, if I can be frank.</p>
<p>Regardless, good luck to you all. Maybe you’ll find this article interesting?
