Reflection

[ul]
[]Strengths: developed passion for robotics and computer programming, CommonApp essay, quantitative qualifications
[]Weaknesses: I’m Asian?, generic supplement essay?
[]Why you think you received a likely/possible/unlikely prediction: I’m questioning if I really stand out as an applicant. I probably don’t fit Wellesley’s mold of an ideal student, and I should’ve explained why I want to attend a women’s college xD
[]Where else you have applied and/or have been accepted/rejected: Applied: Pomona, Williams, Swarthmore, Harvey Mudd, Olin College of Engineering, Smith, Princeton, Carleton, Case Western Reserve, WashU. I got an “early-write” acceptance letter from Smith!
[/ul]

General comments/advice/hindsight: I honestly thought I would get a “likely.” Ahh, but all hope is not lost. Congrats to future Wellesley ladies!
