[li] Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: I showed my passion for my hobbies and showed how it can turn into something fruitful[/li][/ul]General Comments: I was very surprised. I was preparing that I would get waitlisted, so I was already thinking about choosing between Duke and Columbia (I didn’t get into Columbia yet, but I thought I stood a very good chance). I received the news from my father since I was at a science competition. I was in shock and denial…I called my dad again to make sure he didn’t read wrong. I didn’t actually believe my acceptance until I checked the e-mail, myself. And the acceptance didn’t sink in until I was trying to sleep, during which time I laid awake for two hours. I was also accepted to Columbia, Duke, and Cornell. I was waitlisted at Tufts.</p>

[/ul]Reflection[ul]
[</em>] Strengths: rigorous course load
[<em>] Weaknesses: lack of leadership in extra-currics
[</em>] Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: I think I had fairly good stats and solid essay and recs so that’s why they didn’t out-right reject me but my decent extra-currics and just the competitiveness of the applicant pool and low admittance rate this year meant I got wait-listed
[/ul]General Comments: Congratulations to all those accepted! I was surprised to even get wait-listed and actually don’t feel too bad about it because I applied to Harvard for my mom and always thought I’d enjoy it more for grad school. For those wait-listed or not accepted, please don’t be too hard on yourself.</p>
<p>I think we’ll all end up going where we’re meant to be and I don’t plan on staying on the waiting list but have decided to attend University of Pittsburgh. :)</p>
