<p>I KNOW, my GPA SUCKS like crap
any hope?</p>

<p>also will being an asian-male be a hook for middlebury seeing they don't have that many asians, and probably a small amount of asians in their applicant pool</p>

<p>There are plenty of Asians, but your low income 1st generation background will improve your chances. The arabic is interesting too.</p>
