So i dunno hah. Here are some things i have been thinking about though:

2210 SAT score. GPA of 3.43 i think, on the usual scale. go 2 an awesome boarding school in NH but live in south florida. last summer i worked in a lab @ stanford–really cool experience with mice and brain slicing. the summer before that i went 2 taiwan 2 study chinese, which had plenty of crazy stories of its own. summer before that i burned sugarcane on my neighbor’s farm (do i need 2 explain y i burned 700 acres???). during the year, im into campus politics and love drawing cartoons for the school newspaper. at home, i kinda just chill. i like chasing iguanas, listening 2 music, going to the beach, and hanging out with friends and family (i have 3 brothers, 2 in wheelchairs). i wrote my essays about my mom and growing up in a wheelchair family, my lab experience, my taiwan program, and drawing as a hobby. anyway, i really like biology, IR, and econ, but i dont know how well stanford will see that. i can hope right?
