<p>Extras: Volunteered MD. Anderson Cancer Center for Summer, joined some clubs, Co-Secretary Agape… SNHS, NHS, Mu Alpha Theta, Debate for 2 years (didn’t work out coz language probs) that’s about it (I know I’m weak in Ecs…)</p>

<p>Nice recs, I hope…</p>

<p>Background: Asian (duh??) – Chinese, lived in Brazil for 9 years, been in US for 4 and a half years… Totally a fob… (wish I was Hispanic!)
Essay Comm App: How I suffered discrimination in Brazil and overcame it. I thought it was pretty good…
Current Status: Accepted into JHU ED but deferred for their BME (biomedical engineering) major =(
Backdoor plan: UT since I’m top 10% … coz my mom won’t pay for me to go to JHU if I don’t get in BME… actually she won’t pay for school that are matched for me coz she thinks either I get into really good ivies or I go to UT for less $$…</p>

<p>wow no one to evaluate my credentials?? this is sooo sad… cry cry… just got deferred for BME… caught totally off guard… Now I’m trying to apply for middle level colleges all of a sudden and their deadlines are totally past or January 1st (which i can’t really make w/o recs)</p>

<p>i don’t see why you wouldn’t get into washu… I did bme there and had relatively the same scores/grades… maybe a few more activities, but I think you’d get in. Would you be doing bme at washu too, or just jhu?</p>

<p>If you can’t get into one of those…I can’t either. But we all know that. Good luck!</p>
