James Scholar nominee at UIUC (That's the honors program here, I get accepted into it officially after this semester provided I get a 3.5 or higher, which I will.) Dean's List at UIUC. That's all the major ones that might count for something, I think...</p>

<p>Other stuff: classical fencing, piano for thirteen years...that's about it.</p>

<p>If anyone has any suggestions/comments/idea of chances, I appreciate your input greatly!</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>What are you trying to make your way slowly around the world? What's next, University of Tokyo? </p>

<p>But seriously, sounds good to me. Did you apply last year?</p>

[Goshamoossy]

<p>Yeah, and after Tokyo, it's University of Moscow for grad school.</p>

<p>Forgot to mention, I speak fluent Russian, dunno if that'll help me any for the app.</p>

<p>Actually, that'd be pretty cool, not that I speak Japanese or anything...</p>

[mercruz]

<p>It will. Schools like "world-centric" people who have knowledge of other cultures, languages, etcetera.</p>
