<p>I know Carnegie Mellon is a very great school and probably a bit out of my reach but I want to hear opinions! It's my first pick but also the toughest school i'll be applying to. I'm also applying to Emory, Bucknell, Lehigh and Northeastern. Advice or chances on any of these would be GREAT!</p>
<p>I want to major in international business and minor in marketing</p>
<p>I have spent several summers traveling, with teen groups, to different countries around Europe and The middle East, one of which I spent two months in Israel this past summer during a war with Hamas (my essay will be on that) and I spent four months doing a semester abroad in Israel where I attended an high school and took classes but also learned hebrew, learned about Jewish history and learned about cultural differences between Israel and America and I also studied the history of conflict in the middle east and conflicts in Europe and traveled to where those conflicts took place.</p>
