Maybe. Just make sure to include a nice looking photo on your college application. Also, when you write it, try to sound personable, not all business. Make sure to let them know you are a 'real' person. Not just another applicant. Make sure to have other colleges as a back up plan in case you don't get in.
Re the photo (if they want you to include one), a professor I knew told me that he was on a review board for a college, and it was down to two candidates. They both had almost identical apps. Then, the one person said, "Well, which one would you want to be looking at all semester"? The better looker won!

Like I answered last time: short answer is most likely not. Standardized test scores and extra currics are pretty lacking for the Stanford level.

Your GPA is kind of low, but your extracurriculars may pull u through. Also your SAT and ACT are pretty low. You better hope your extracurriculars are enough.

The application deadline was December 15. Did you send in your application? If not, then you will not be accepted. Sorry, bud.

Still no -- your SAT scores are too low. Is there something you didn't understand about the answers when you asked before?
