<p>Someone please give me some advice!!!</p>

<p>Your numbers good for any state school, but for these caliber schools, the numbers are merely okay. Capitalize on your activities in high school but be wary of falling into the trap of writing an essay about a struggle or challenge if you must exaggerate it. Think long and hard, “Have I really been disadvantaged by my situation?”</p>

<p>I’m gonna send in my act, which my last grade on was a 32. And my essay will be either on cultural differences and experiencing them and ill tie that in to when I lived in Israel while they are at war with Hamas or the volunteer work I did in Israel. As for my personal statement I want to major in International business so i’ll focus on my summers traveling and semester abroad…Do you think these help my chances at all??</p>

<p>You will have to send in all your tests that you have ever taken, just FYI. Those essays sound fine.</p>
