<p>Personal Statements (pretty good)</p>
<h1>1: writing about how growing up as an identical twin has affected me</h1>
<h1>2: writing about a tutoring experience for NHS. For the past 3 months i have been tutoring two spanish-speaking exchange students that do not speak english. i helped them prepare for the mathematics portion of the california high school exit exam (spanish is not my native language, but i was able to use the spanish i have been learning during the past four years to successfully communicate with them, teach them what they needed to know)</h1>
<p>My apologies for having u repeat what you have already put. and i agree, u should’ve been a definite go. what’s ur first choice?</p>
<p>Dude go to SD. it’s great for any bio-s!!!</p>
<p>well… it was ucla. but i got rejected
im appealing to la, and from what ive been told, appealing with marching band at ucla is REALLY effective, so we’ll see what happens with that</p>
<p>if la doesnt go well, ill go to sd.
already got into my first choice college at sd</p>
<p>waiting on berkeley and cornell, but im not expecting anything from those two</p>
<p>Denied. GREAT birthday present, getting that rejection email today, haha. Good thing that Davis was a definite reach for me and I wasn’t anticipating getting in anyway. It would have been nice, though. <em>sigh</em></p>
<p>and at sd, i would do biochem</p>
<p>Good Luck with Ucla i applied w/ marching band status.</p>
<p>ahh nice
yeah im going to send in my audition video pretty soon…
with marching band for 4 years, section leader, drum corps this summer, and able to play alto sax and baritone horn… idk
hopefully its impressive
and i picked a good song to appeal with :D</p>
<p>I’m IN!!! :)</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone that got in :)</p>
