<p>Other than the languages, you look like a typical applicant…nothing really really standing out. The bassoon thing is cool, because I have no heck what it is O.o</p>

<p>Well it’s impossible to tell you for UofC. They put a lot of emphasis on your essays…so that will be your best bet to getting yourself a ticket in.</p>

<p>I heard it’s difficult for international students, but since you won’t be needing financial aid (Lucky duck!), that won’t apply to you.</p>

<p>So I dunno, just apply and maybe try and set up an interview? (I don’t know if they have them in Malaysia but perhaps you could do a webchat or a phone call or something instead) Interviews are a big plus :]</p>
