<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>Coming from a family with hard circumstances, I am the only person to graduate high school in a family of 3 siblings.
I have been living alone with my younger sister, who recently dropped out of high school, for about 2 months.
I love math, science, history, humanities, and creative writing.

<p>After my parents separated I basically had to make up for everything my dad did in the house, including taking care of my little sister and extra things like grocery shopping etc. Because of this my EC time is severely cut and my Senior activities lack in comparison to a lot of the other applicants.</p>
<p>The essay I admitted to Dartmouth was recently featured in a regional lit magazine, and I have an amazing recommendation accompanied by another good-possibly great- one as well. </p>
<p>a lot of info...I know
thank you for your insight</p>
