<p>There’s always a chance for anything (the planet might explode tomorrow morning) – the question is how good is that chance? Silver Turtle’s analysis of previous years’ results (you can find the thread on here somewhere if you look) showed that, at least for SCEA, your chances are quite small unless your stats are quite good, somewhere in the 3.9+ GPA, 2300+ SAT range (assuming, of course, no bona fide hooks like recruited athlete, URM, legacy, development recruit, in which cases the standards are lowered anywhere from somewhat to a lot). Best advice I saw from someone is to be both optimistic and realistic and let that guide your actions (i.e. by all means be hopeful but make sure you have other choices, etc).</p>
