<p>Forgot to mention that I was born in the US, but ethnicity is Pakistani.</p>
<p>hey, another Paki! :P</p>
<p>Wow, where you applying?</p>
<p>Anybody, please…</p>
<p>I’m only going to be a junior, but I hope to apply to Columbia ED senior year.</p>
<p>I would help you evaluate your college list, but honestly it would all be random guessing on my part which isn’t what ur probably looking for.</p>
<p>Good luck with that and work hard.</p>
