Will get good teacher recommendations.
My school normally gets some good connections, but not guaranteed.</p>

<p>I am the leader of two clubs at my school, the TSA Engineering Team and the Math Club. I also lead my schools math team that participates in the Mandelbrot Team Play competition. Additionally, my friend and I recently started a Technology Committee at our school with the main purpose of assessing the ways our school uses technology and other internet services. For example, my friend and I are responsible for introducing the use of IPads for all students at my school.</p>

<p>Columbia IS extremely harder to get into now, especially since it has become one of the top 5 schools in the nation, but it seems like you might have a fair chance. No hurt in trying right? What is your GPA, as it is one of the major factors?</p>
