<p>You should leave off your trips from your application, especially if you have - essentially - paid to put a work trip on your college app. Also, the trip to China is irrelevant if if has not truly shaped you as a person and as an applicant to the SFS.</p>

<p>Overall, within range but generally a toss up. Essays must be great.</p>

<p>P.S. No ACT+Writing? You need the writing to be considered as an applicant at all.</p>
