i had a 3.63 and a 2270, great recs/extracurriculars and the like…got deferred early and then rejected. part of it was that i did my app in basically one day and it came out terrible. mainly, though, my grades were just too low. i ended up at middlebury.

i also had a legacy. since you have slightly worse stuff than me and lack the legacy, i’d say you’re a defer/reject, too. you certainly have a chance, though. i can identify with your upward trend, laziness in school, and former wonderkid status. good luck.
