<p>I'm just wondering if my story is a hook.</p>

<p>I went to a really gettho school in New Mexico after moving from California. I spent a year in a boarding school in India, where many students were expected to go to IIT. I then came back to the states and homeschooled myself while doing competitive figure skating. When I was 13 I took a test called the CPE and enrolled in classes at the local comm. college, after working on my basics I began working on my two year degree. I am in my 2nd year and once I complete it, I will be about 16 1/2 years old and will get my GED. Do you think this is a hook?</p>

<p>I am also a minority, first generaton american and first person to go to college on my moms side. I come from a low income family as well $40,000<</p>

<p>Hey, where did you go in India? Were you studying abroad? I just came back from a year in India with the SAGE program at Kodaikanal International School.</p>

<p>I don't think it fits the definition of a "hook," which means you're from a region and background that the university wants to diversify the student body, but you're certainly an interesting person. I'm pretty sure crimsonbulldog was being serious, because I was thinking the same thing :)</p>
