Location/Person:

• major strength/weakness:
Strengths: NCTE Contest winner, serious political extra curriculars, started a successful film series, summer schools at yale and brown, Slavic studies major, semester of Russian at local college and that I am awesome.
Weakness: I didn’t interview because my mom became seriously ill when we were supposed to fly out and a really good friend of mine with almost the same extra currics (plus varsity sport and drama) applied and got in…yeah….that sucked
• why you think you were accepted/rejected/defered: my freshman grades are from a private school that I hated and are a flat 3.0. I didn’t interview. A friend with similar (slightly better) stats applied and got in. Didn’t make clear enough that it was my first choice.
