Why is Stanford so difficult to get into...

<p>“Many more people apply than the number of students Stanford can accept. That’s why the admit rate is low. That’s it. In theory a school’s average SAT scores could be in the 500s and still have a very low acceptance rate if a lot of people apply.”</p>

<p>I think this is the correct answer (if there is a correct answer). What’s Stanford’s undergraduate population, like 7,000?</p>

<p>i mispelle to **** oothers off…lol but my conviction remains the same…</p>

<p>I’m sure there are so many other ways to frustrate people, but wasting a minute of my time is incredibly stupid. I think people would take you a bit more seriously if you type correctly. It’s just a thought.</p>

<p>I agree with the athletes comment. Although I’m a current Stanford recruit reject :-(.</p>

<p>Still, I would rather meet exceptional athletes than just another 2300 SAT kid - because honestly, the former is often much more interesting than the later.</p>
