Would I get into Stanford University?

How to get into Stanford University.....?

• Alright so let's get to it, I'm 15, a sophomore, 4.0 gpa, nationally ranked tennis player, & I'm getting my ranking up so I can compete against players around the world, I'm taking 8 AP courses my highschool career; I took the AP Euro exam yesterday, it was pretty easy. I take all honors classes, 'cept math. Math is a b#tch. I'm also a member of the Leadership program in my city, which is very competitive, only a handful of students are selected from my city. Stanford looks for people that will become very successful ater college b.c it represents the big stanford name. I do believe I have these desirable qualifications!!

• Answer:

  Get recruited to play tennis at Stanford. About 20% of each Stanford class consists of athletic recruits. For applicants who do not have a non-academic attribute that Stanford seeks- wealthy legacy, athletic recruit, diversity, extraordinary special talent- the chances for admission are so remote that Stanford cannot be counted on as a viable choice.
