Answer 1

I would say that you have a very likely chance of being accepted. You have a well-rounded education combined with various extracurricular activites and community service. You are able to maintain an exceptional GPA while balancing your time. The main factors for acceptance will be the talent of the candidate pool and how many applications are received. But, speaking from just reading your background info, I would say they would be wrong to deny you acceptance to their institution. Good luck!

Answer 2

With a university like Stanford it's always a toss-up...

You certainly have the credentials to get into any decent university in the country even though your SAT is a bit low...

I suggest you apply to Stanford as your dream school. Also apply to backups such as UC's and the like. I am sure you will get into some UC schools (which are all very good), but don't be surprised if Stanford rejects you. However I think you have a better chance than most people...but do you have a better chance that the others who applied to Stanford from around the world?

I say go for it, since in your case it really is a toss-up.
