Yes, sure. We don't need a ChatGPT bot statement like that.

It’s literally what their AOs have said. You can choose to ignore them, but they have made it fairly clear that perfect/near perfect SATs, Olympiad medals, and robotics do not really move the needle. A student with such a profile is wasting their ED/REA opportunity with Stanford.

I really don’t see why this person should be at an elite school for just being weird. Like these aren’t interesting or impressive ECs to me, just strange ones

More deserving than the bizarre QB admits / matches I’ve seen …

We get it. You hate poor people. Anything else?

Unbelievable... I am very sorry

DC's friend too. Finalist for the largest science competition in America (you know the one...) + math awards + published research (and not the BS kind) + 1590 + 96 UW GPA with top rigor. Rejected. What else is there??

Nothing! It could have been your kid admitted and I’m sure they could have done great there. It’s just a numbers game, not something lacking in your kids background. They’ll do great someplace else instead.

Also mine

My DC got deferred

Yes, they came out at 7!

Are results coming today at 7?
