<p>So my first language is not English its Yoruba(a West African language). Does this help or harm my application?</p>
<p>Doubt it has any effect. Are you international applicant? Most of them have English as secondary language.</p>
<p>nah, i’m a U.S citizen</p>
<p>English being a 2nd lang in and of itself is neutral. How have you done in English and in Verbal portions of your SAT/ACT? If that’s all fine, they so are you. If not, then not. Simple.</p>
<p>O ok thanks T2, and my verbal scores tend to be the worst especially on my SAT.</p>
