Numbers aren’t everything (though whether they’re something or XYZ-ing is debatable). For what it’s worth: accepted this year with a 2090 SAT and 3.93 GPA.
NOT a URM, legacy, athlete (whatsoever), National Merit Scholar, researcher, etc. I’m just curious about the world.
This overarching curiosity about the world
and the fact that you stretched and challenged yourself beyond what most high school students would do despite growing up in a very low socioeconomic status

@StartAdventuring you give me hope.
We share the same stats. I hope my essays conveyed my love of learning and exploration enough to warrant me a spot.
