<p>Michigan is my absolute first choice. Unfortunately I can't show it with ED...lol </p>
<p>Please chance me by my stats.</p>
<p>Background info: I go to an average inner city brooklyn school. A student was admitted from our school last year with a 3.3 and a 30 act.
I am African-American. I moved from suburban CT to crappy Brooklyn. It had a huge affect on me and I wrote really well in my essays about the effect and how I tried to turn it into a positive experience.</p>
