Stock market investor, averaging 8% return per month

=Essays=

=My first essay was the typical. Teacher made math my fav subject, which is why i love numbers and feel that Mays is the right place for me.

=2nd essay was referring to our **** poor economy at the moment. National debt, consumer spending, value of dollar tanking, rising oil prices etc… Companies will outsource more jobs to overseas countries

=3rd essay (optional) was basically a exceptional achievement/talent essay.
I wrote about how i was introduced to the stock market in the 8th grade and followed it for a couple of years before deciding to start my own online brokerage account in the 11th grade. I initially was losing my ass but instead of giving up i hit the books and learned more etc, which made me a much more disciplined trader that allowed me to become a profitable trader now.

My grades and rank aren’t the best (didnt take fresh/soph years seriously), but im hoping the whole stock market investor thing will boost my chances of getting into TAMU business
