Harrybagatestes: Thanks…I guess? I appreciate your opinions, but I’m not “filled with resent.” Like I said before, I would never bring that experience up in an interview, essay, etc. Also, although I agree that being Asian will not help in the admissions process, I think that I am more different than similar to the stereotypical Asian. Okay, I have good grades and play the violin- but I am also on two cheerleading squads (one competitive All-Star squad, another for school), do a lot of volunteer work, play lacrosse, etc. I don’t think that I’m the one-dimensional person that you’re making me out to be.
*I am more than willing to accept criticism that is valid and constructive. Harry, I will keep your comments about the importance of essays/recs in mind. Don’t feel like you have to respond to this- I’m only writing it as an explanation for others who might help me with my chances.

P.S. Harry, I don’t ice skate, and I never said I was interested in biomedical sciences…but that was random lol
