Reflection
Strengths: Incredible test scores, Set a record at my school for most AP courses taken and most 5’s. Also my placing in National Competitions and Passion for Soccer.
Weaknesses: I didn’t have any really outstanding Volunteer services. At least compared to people on this website lol. Also I didn’t take any foreign Languages in High school, other than the three years of required Spanish (took AP Spanish, but not the test) I can speak three other languages, but none are offered as classes (Hindi, Urdu, and Arabic)
Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: My test scores and my
well-roundedness. I achieved national recognition.
Where else were you accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Accepted: Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, Stanford, Duke, Cornell, Dartmouth, Brown, and John Hopkins.
Wait listed: None
Rejected: NYU. Apparently I haven’t taken any foreign language Subject tests, a requirement for them.</p>
