<p>From Kindergarten to Eighth Grade, I've been in special education for speech and learning disabilities. However, I overcame and adapted to these problems, and have been without supplemental help throughout high school. Like everyone else here, I'm doing the harvard and all, and I'm far from spectacular numbers wise: 3.65 gpa, 1330. Coming from special ed, it's quite an accomplishment. Now I talked about my problems/struggles in my personal essay, and it's confirmed in my counselor rec and some documents I sent to college. Is my story an added bonus or a real hook?</p>
<p>I would say it's amazing!! They will see that you have put a lot of effort. Good job!</p>
