<p>Also, I am a very good writer, so I expect my essays to be good. I know the interview is a major factor, so I am obviously taking that into consideration as well.</p>

<p>Please let me know what you think! Thanks!!!</p>

<p>Help me out please!!!</p>

<p>Wow you went to Italy :wink: ( I live there ) I can’t really chance you because I don’t know how your ec’s would be considered as a domestic student . Still the best advice I’ve been given is quality vs. quantity so put as much passion as you can in your essays and in the interview :smiley: My experience with English speaking countries is that , unlike here , passion and commitment are rewarded :slight_smile: Best luck with your application :smiley: !!!</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>
