Why was I denited early decision to Rice University? Rice Students, please reply.

<p>Why were you rejected?
Low SAT’s
Low AP scores
Poor EC’s (40 hours, one <em>somewhat</em> of a leadership position, one year of sports)
Relatively low GPA for a school like Rice</p>

<p>No offense but you shouldn’t have put so much work into this school. Only 23% of applicants are accepted and your scores would be in the bottom 25% (probably more like bottom 10%) of people who were accepted. I live about an hour from Rice and the kids who I’ve known who were accepted had much higher scores and extracurriculars. Sorry</p>
