<p>I'm a junior looking to apply to several ivies/other top schools. I'm a solid applicant but not stellar in anything (i.e. I haven't cured a disease, discovered a new mathematical property, or won a Nobel peace prize like half the other ivy applicants). However, my dad is in the air force. As a result, I've lived in turkey, Germany, and will graduate HS in England. I've also lived in 4 US states and attended 12 schools with all the moving around. Will any of this help my application or at least make a good app essay topic? Input appreciated. Thanks!</p>
<p>Essay topic, yes. No other help (coming from a former AF member whose DDs also moved often)</p>
<p>^Ditto.
Definitely no help, but it probably gave you life experience worthy of an essay.</p>
