@DynamicProphet: That’s very true. My scores aren’t great as well, but I devoted my time on writing essays that express many things about me ( My personality, my passion for computer science, and all the cool projects I’ve finished). By the way, I’m also an International student studying high school in the US so I may be considered OOS ( I don’t know if that makes it easier). I totally agree with @DynamicStyle, AI may carry some important values but CS isn’t just for everyone. PAI can show a lot about the applicant and his/her ability to do well in CS field.
