[</em>] Fee Waiver Used?: No
[<em>] SAT I (by section): 1st time: 700M, 690R, 630W. = 2020. 2nd time: 650M, 630R, 680W. = 1960 haha
[</em>] SAT IIs: 570 Math 2, 510 Spanish, 520 World History
[<em>] GPA, Weighted and Unweighted: 4.37 W, 3.95 UW
[</em>] Rank: top 3%

[/ul]Subjective:[ul]
[<em>] ECs listed on app: Cross Country, Track, Soccer, Student Council, Class Vice President, Dance Marathon Committee, Volunteer at the Animal Shelter, Newspaper Staff, don’t remember anything else.
[</em>] Job/Work Experience: Started working when I was 15, worked 18 hour weeks through sophomore year, took a break, then 10 hour weeks by spring of junior year, 15-20 hour weeks through senior year until I graduated in February, now I’m working full-time till I leave for my dream internship in Hawaii =)
[<em>] Essays (subject and responses): I think they are the only reason why I was accepted. For one I wrote about a bike trip I went on over the summer where I rode 2007 miles from Florida to Vermont in three weeks. The other I just wrote about me and my background, how my dad has taught me how to work hard because I have to pay for everything myself (hence why I work so much), never feel sorry for myself, appreciate what I have. I think I really conveyed the passion that I have for the things I do and the strength/maturity of my character.

[</em>] Weaknesses: Kryptonite… and chocolate
[li] Why you think you were accepted/wait listed/denied: My essays.[/li][/ul]Other Factors:
General Comments/Congratulations/Venting/Commiserations,etc: I didn’t meet the “G” requirement in the application so I was pretty sure I would not be accepted. Plus I am out of state, plus I am Asian. So it’s kind of crazy that I was accepted. Sadly, I probably won’t get enough financial aid so I don’t think I can afford UCLA.</p>
