<p>I know how it is for most people: 4.0 GPA, almost perfect SAT 1, 2 and ACT scores, great recommendations, flawless essay, alot of volunteering, and a long list of extra curriculars. What I want to hear is how the under dog got in. Did you have a less then perfect GPA, crapy SAT score etc. but still got in. What made you stand out??? Tell me everything.</p>
