I don't understand why I did not get accepted

I am surprised also. Especially in-state. When I look at the EA admissions thread, I am floored by the qualifications of deferred and rejected candidates–all well-rounded and all those APs! My DS’s school does not even offer AP courses, and he was accepted. If you told me the EA thread was a Yale thread (my DS was deferred=later rejection), I would believe it. The field of applicants looks far more objectively qualified than even Duke as well. I completely underestimated the competition of GT admissions.
