… it’s not my best, so i’m gonna take it again…
…hopefully i would raise 100 or 150 more points…
and i was just elected as president for Habitat for Humanity
and probably would run for VP in National Honor Society…

oh, and don’t worry about my paying for colleges…
… i’m planning to join ROTC… they’ll give enough scholarship… hopefully…

so please advise me about my college choices~!!

thanks a lot… maybe i’ll buy you lunch someday if you live close enough…

<p>it looks really good, just keep doing what you are doing… the Ec are good too</p>

<p>you’ll DEFINITELY get into NYU. i cant believe thats not a safety. i wish i thought like you and had that as a dream school too. then i wouldnt feel too crappy about gettin rejected from HYPS and accepted at NYU. i was filled with apathy for the NYU admission envelope</p>

<p>do i pick my minor after i get into college</p>

<p>or in the apps?</p>

<p>As a foreign student, you may need to do a lot of homework before applying to schools here. I know of Korean students living here in the U.S. with relatives who were treated as “internationals” in the application process.</p>
