<p>Wait. Did you seriously do all this? I mean in terms of the volume of activities…</p>

3

<p>How can v chance u if u didn’t write which schools u want to be chanced for?</p>

4

<p>You’re probably in for sure</p>

<p>I’d consider Iraq to be the world’s most dangerous country though =P</p>

5

<p>hahaha i wanna be chanced for vanderbilt…well the news says that its Pakistan…do you think i have a good chance…?</p>

6

<p>You spelled “curricular” wrong, which was a bit of a non-sequitor amongst one of the most insanely time consuming list of EC’s I have ever seen.</p>

<p>you seem to have an okay chance (good SAT subject tests), but your EC list is suspiciously long and your SAT’s could use a little boost.</p>

<p>playing the pakistan card may help you, but from the looks of your resume, your country of origin doesn’t seem to have disadvantaged you much.</p>
