<p>Short explanation of recs/essays</p>
<p>Well, clearly, very few colleges have released their essay topics, but I know from my teachers and friends that I can sound passionate about anything. Recommendation-wise, two of them will be from people who know me as a person and one is potentially a Harvard professor (Though I need to work on the skills to build a close relationship with a teacher)</p>
<p>Additional information:
I'm looking at combinations of these majors:</p>
<p>Applied Econ/Finance
IR/PoliSci
Petroleum Engineering
Korean/Norwegian - <em>minor</em>
Linguistics - <em>minor</em></p>

<li>Please chance me</li>
<li>Am I shooting myself in the foot for law school by aiming for top colleges and then taking on such huge academic loads there? I want to graduate summa cum laude and with a near perfect LSAT score (To give me the best chance at all the law schools), but I feel like I would miss out on the 'college experience' by becoming a bookworm. Not only that, but I would have to do something outside of internships and classes to stand out as a leader.</li>
