As a student with stats that “should” get me admitted - but not even close to a lock - this extension seems pretty unfair. I could have taken the SAT again in December to raise my scores. I could have rewritten or further edited my essays. Someone even said that the essay length changed from early September to now from <300 to <250. I could have used 50 more words on a couple of my essays. All of these changes have me really stressed out. With another month and a half of applications I could end up being denied. I’m so sad.
