<p>Hi! I have been reading many of the posts only to find myself extremely depressed with the abundance of extremely qualified overachievers on the site. I am not going to lie and say that I am a slacker and do nothing but I am getting really antsy about my chances at getting into the Hotel School. So any replies about my chances would be greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>see like i am on this site and everyone has all these amazing stats so yeaa i always thought i was at the bottom of the barrel. But basically my business teacher reallllllllly recommended the school as did my college counselor. I visited the school and really liked it as well as spoke to some of the current students. It really is a great school...good that u are getting interested early!</p>

<p>Although you describe your test scores as "ugggggg", im sure they are good enough and don't matter as much for hotel, just look at your practical EC's, all seem very very strong, i say you have a real good shot, good luck</p>
