<p>My major hook is that I took ESLs in 9th grade because that's when I came to the States, and I'm taking AP classes now as a senior..
Secondly I have the biggest improvement(ranking wise) in school.. -> maybe getting a scholarship for this
Passion for singing and engineering is shown in my essays.</p>
<p>Weakness
Meager sports
ECs are too diverse; only the internship at an engineering company shows my focus on engineering major.</p>
<p>Super reach:
Stanford,Columbia,MIT,Brown</p>
<p>Reach:
UChicago,UPenn,Duke, UCB, Cooper Union</p>
<p>Match:
Cornell(just because I'm doing ED), UCLA(coz OOS), CMU, Notre Dame, UMich</p>
<p>Safety:
Rutgers, USC</p>
