my essay is about my how my life has allowed how my dad's death (in 2004) has allowed me to relate to other orphans. due to that, my 9th and 10th grade summer was spent in bangladesh (o ya, im from bangladesh) and as a cultural tradition we basically toured the capital (Dhaka) and went to the orphanages and provided food for the orphans and just spent the day at several orphanages learning about their struggles. </p>

<p>I dont really know where to put this, but before my dad's death we moved a lot (visited over 5 countries) which is why i understand the need for cultural diversity. (should i put it)</p>

<p>also, can someone tell me how to convert my UW and W gpa into a 4.0number? all the other Chance’ers are putting their gpa and i dont know how to relate their 4.0 scale to my 100 scale gpa</p>

<p>also, when someone chances me, can i know my weak points and my strong points?
ppl tell me my EC’s are my strong point and my gpa/sat scores are pretty weak</p>

<p>I do not know about this scaling but you probably should not post this in the Cornell class of 2012 forum since it looks like you’d be entering as a freshman. you’re just not likely to get many responses up here.</p>
