<p>This is based on my experience.
My neighbor’s daughter was a science major, and she was a brilliant student with great essays and stuff.
But she got rejected from her dream school. Why?</p>
<p>There may have been many reasons, but one of them which I suspect that affected the most was the inconsistencies in her awards and her future major; she wants to study science, but won WRITING awards.
There was nothing that could prove her strength in science.
See? If you say to college that you like this and that, you have to have a proof that you did something related to your future major. I think your resume isn’t so inconsistent as that of girl, but I think it may be dangerous. </p>
<p>Applying with STEM major may make you look like a ‘cookie cutter asian’ as you said, but applying with
politic or such majors without substantial awards from such area(like MUN, JSA, student body governing organizations) may hurt you even more. This is just my opinion.</p>
