Reflection</p>
<p>Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: probably the fact that I had perfect math and reading scores on the SAT helped me a lot (since vandy puts the most weight on those two sections) and my essay.</p>
<p>I honestly cannot believe I got in considering I almost failed two classes my sophomore year, but I guess things have a way of working out. Let’s go Vanderbilt Class of 2015!</p>
