<p>Mother works in Beijing. Currently living with Father and younger Sister in U.S.. Father and sister are rather unfamiliar with the English language, so I take on the role of a parent sometimes at home.(Something i'll write into my essay.)</p>

<p>Most unique fact about me is that I went to school in Beijing, China for 8 years (2000-2008). Came to Washington state just two years ago, entering my sophomore year. </p>

<p>Volunteered in an orphanage in Beijing for 2 summers, (3hrs./week), (3 weeks/summer).</p>

<p>Transferred credit in 9th grade from China dragged down my overall GPA. GPA (unweighted) for the last 3 semesters in which i've been enrolled in an American high school is 3.89.</p>

<p>reach, though u never know what may happen.</p>

<p>u really need to bring up ur sats to around 2300+ since ur gpa is below average.</p>

<p>Would the fact that my transferred GPA was from an entirely different curriculum be taken into consideration?</p>

<p>they certainly like to see a rise in gpa through your years in high school. </p>

<p>Your transferred gpa, before the 3.89, would most likely be looked at as if you were an international applicant.</p>

<p>Also, you should give the breakdown of ur sat scores because stern does not look at the writing section for admissions.</p>
