These are the 2 main ECs that reflect on my effort and work.
ECs: Research in the emerging field of microfluidics (nanotech), research in the area of parkinsons in elucidating the interactions between the newly discovered gene (LRRK2 ) with protein signaling transduction pathways, and finally completed research in developing a new biofuel cell.
Medical club: formed school group of Hosa, participating in public health projects for educating low income people and communities, and etc
Recs: from biology teacher who will elaborate on my research and contributions in medical club. Rec from a biophysics professor from the local university (He received a phd from Harvard), rec also from another faculty member from the same university who is the head of a biology lab there.
potential hooks: urm (black/african male, first to go to college, and research)
Universities I am asking: Uchicago (i know essays are the main thing), emory (oxford college), Rice, and columbia.
I should note that I do have some extenuating circumstances which tell with the fact that my father has been sick for the majority of the time and I am basically have the role of being the “father” figure. I am not a ■■■■■ or lying.
Please be honest</p>
<p>Nothing is ever a complete fantasy in the realm of college admissions, but I must say your UW GPA is rather low. Your SAT scores offset that though and your ECs are really good. I say you have a shot at Rice and Emory, I’m not so sure about Columbia though.
