<p>Hi guys, anyone care to read my commonapp essay? I tried writing it in a Malcolm Gladwell style by starting with a vivid story and tying it to my main idea at the very end ;)</p>

<p>Although I’ve already submitted this thing, it took me a long time to write and I just want to see what you guys think about it, especially since I’m using this baby to demonstrate to the Harvard admissions committee that my family and I have “overcome significant obstacles” =D</p>
