<p>In conclusion
I love Social Sciences therefore, I am planning to go into Political Science, and later becoming a well-known, respected and respectable, noble Politician (might sound hard to imagine) in the future. The main thing on my agenda will be Education, and try to get members of communities who usually do not attend a four year institution, into one. </p>
<p>I may not be academically strong compared to many of other Stanford applicants, but my passion is doing unconditional community service to others. I am inspired to serve, to inspire others, (I dont know if that makes sense to anyone). </p>
<p>Stanford is my dream school, I have been dreaming of it since I can remember. I am planning to do SCEA since it is my first choice. (by the way, do u recommend i do SCEA or regular?) I would really be bummed out if I didnt get accepted, and I know it might be a huge reach for me, but I would like some of your thoughts? What do u think???</p>
