<p>everything looks good, but there's no formula to getting in. esp. when you're asian...i should know. did you win any awards, other than in HOSA. Your essays need to kick ass, not just be decent. </p>

<p>good luck!</p>

<p>Do you go to health careers, btw?</p>

<p>yo, thx for the reply. My essays are pretty good i hope. I forgot to mention i got the national merit commended scholar thing. I also got a few minor awards like silver medal on national latin exam, math student of the month, and something else. What's health careers? BTW, I'm from NJ if that makes a difference.</p>

<p>being from NJ will def. help you. it's easier to get in out of state than in state...</p>
