SCS and Tepper are definitely harder to get into than the other schools you got accepted to. Their acceptance rates are around 20%. Your scores and grades aren’t outstanding for an SCS applicant. I know people who were waitlisted (and got in) with significantly better stats (for instance, I know a kid who got waitlisted to SCS with 15 5’s on AP exams and 1550 on the SAT). I’m not surprised.
