Your essay, scores, GPA, ECs and Recs are equally weighted.

Where did you get this idea from? Just because they are all listed under “very important” considerations does not mean that they are all equally important.

They’re not equally weighted. If Stanford says that it’s not true.



Yea, my scores are below average, but again, i heard that stanford cares more about passion.

“More about passion” than other similarly prestigious universities? Maybe, although being a straight A student still goes a long way getting in here. Test scores not so much.
