<p>Thank you for taking your time to reply to our questions. I am really interested in Columbia which is why I decided to apply ED. I’m not sure if I really qualify according to other people’s scores and EC’s but could you maybe tell me what I could do more this year or some suggestions in general? I actually want to major possible double major in like anthro/psych but basically I do want to go to med school so I’d have to take the underlying science classes and what not. But here goes:
just FYI i am a korean female from California, but I did transfer schools from hawaii after freshmen year if that has any weight at all. and I will be a first gen college student. i actually moved quite a bit so i’m from hawaii went to school there until 7th grade winter break, moved to korea to british international school, then moved back to hawaii for freshmen year, and then moved to california (sillicon valley area) in sophomore year and am planning to graduate here… the move was definitely challenging as the quality of education here is much higher than I’ve ever received in my opinion at least.</p>
