Stanford students with low test scores

I have a decent GPA but a mediocre SAT I. Decent-ish ACT score. (but science and CR were a lot lower than to my likings :/)

It’s all holistic! SAT itself doesn’t play a deciding factor, so maybe that’s why?
And generally speaking, high SAT (remember, in general, not always) usually correlate to academic excellence. But again, it’s outrageous to apply that to everybody because we all have our own stories to tell, right?

I’m not letting my mediocre SAT I hinder my chance to apply to Stanford. Worst case possible, I get rejected from Stanford, cry for a few seconds, and hope for acceptances from other schools.
