<p>Additional Information:*
I did not want to be too specific, so I only wrote what I thought was necessary. Everything unspecified here will still be on my application, resume, and recommendations. I am a junior at a public high school, and come from a middle class hispanic family. My mother has graduated with a bba from *Baruch (cuny) and my father did not graduate high school. I was diagnosed with leukemia several years ago and had a bone marrow transplant from my sister. She is now applying to medical school, and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis two years ago. My brother just got his MBA from Rollins (Winter Park, FL). In total, it makes for an incredible life story. I just hope this can make up for the not-so-competitive GPA and test scores. I aspire to be the first of my family in the Ivy League, and I love business and technology. Thank you :)</p>
