seriously now, how much of an edge do we really have?

Look at Actual Results… I would probably consider myself an equal to black Yale admits in terms of extracurriculars and other softs, but unlike most, who were kids with 4.0s but weaker testing, I was tilted in favor of a stronger SAT (2290) but a weaker (for Yale, of course :D) GPA (3.85) and I was waitlisted. The same thing happened to me and another Hispanic female with high SAT/lower Gpa with WashU, where we were both waitlisted.
