Hello @Tampa2015, congratulations on all your achievements. I would love to hear more about your journey. What was the way you described yourself in that “Chance me” thread (e.g., GPA, SAT, ECs, etc.)? Why do you think posters downgraded your chances at Columbia (and those other similarly-considered schools)? In retrospect, what do you think stood out to the admissions folks and led them to the opposite conclusion? What lessons and advice, if any, would you provide to current HS students? Thanks!
