<p>Applying to CMU, GW, Georgetown, American, Penn State, Emory, Lehigh and northeastern
maybe a few more</p>

<p>I want to major in international business and minor in marketing</p>

<p>I have spent several summers traveling, with teen groups, to different countries around Europe and The middle East</p>

<p>one of which I spent two months in Israel this past summer during a war with Hamas (my essay will be on that) </p>

<p>I spent four months doing a semester abroad in Israel where I attended an high school and took classes but also learned hebrew, learned about Jewish history and learned about cultural differences between Israel and America and I also studied the history of conflict in the middle east and conflicts in Europe and traveled to where those conflicts took place.</p>

<p>I think you should be good for all, but Georgetown and Emory might be a reach because of the natural selectivity, and no huge X factor. Could go either way for those two.
Good luck</p>
