I took Calc BC and Stats over the summer at Harvard, and ended up with two A's on both subjects- eight units as college credit.
Got a rec from a Calc BC professor at harvard.
Good recs from both math and science teachers at school
I'm more like a math and science person, and plan to applying all engineering schools. Also, I'm really into arts... taking a lot of art classes.
both my parents don't have college degrees. no relatives in the states.
very independent. always challenging myself.
Also, i was a vice president for my sophomore year--I was lucky. I hardly spoke English fluently at that time. but it was fun. a lot of support from friends
