Reflection
Strengths: My strength would definitely be my essays.
Weaknesses: GPA, test scores, course rigor, extracurriculars
Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: I feel like I was accepted because of my essays because I really worked hard to perfect them and I tried to use my personal voice to show who I really am on the essay topics.
Where else were you accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Accepted @ csulb, csula, csudh, csuf, ucr, ucsc, ucsd, ucsb, ucm Rejected @ ucla and usc
General Comments: Compared to other people’s stats, mine is DEFINITELY lower. I feel like I am giving hope to those people with low gpa and test scores, few extracurriculars, light courseload, by showing them my stats. My essays were the reason that helped me earn a spot for admission. So definitely work hard on your essays and believe in yourself!!
