<p>Wow....You and I have very similar academic interests and grades...I'm also really into the spanish language (taking AP this year) and have been studying Japanese independently for 1 year, taking a college course now, and studied abroad in japan this past summer...haha, i want to study foreign languages aswell. </p>

<p>its amazing how similar in academic achivement and in academic interests, but your GPA is likely higher than mine..</p>

<p>I think you have very good chances! You're a male, which will help, and you have diverse interests.</p>
