Stanford

[Capt.Braden]

Is it really as impossible to get into Stanford as everybody makes it sound?

[CharlieHorse]

No it's possible, you just have to be at the top of your class, very intelligent, and motivated to pursue a field.
Statistically it's unlikely to get in, but definitely try if you think you have a chance. It's also a lot of $.

Donate. You'll get in.

[James Dean]

Not impossible, but a little bit difficult. Depends on what you want to study and it's usually on a person by person basis as to who makes it in.

[SethfromMI]

no not impossible, however they do accept students who are at a level higher than most

[Typhlosion]

Of course not! Otherwise noone would be in it :P

Many people apply to Stanford, however, so your competition is much larger. You gotta be the elite of the top elite of the elite to get in, but hey, it's doable.

[Uranus]

Everything is possible. It's just the effort that you put into it that will make the difference between easy, and difficult.

Don't go somewhere for the name, go there because it is where you'll be happy.
