<p>heyhey.. i really dont have time right now to fill up the whole statistics thing.. but yeah.. i think what helped me was the multi cultural aspect.. i am born in india, brought up in singapore and i have been living in indonesia for the past 3 years.. so basically.. i am very asian.. of course thats not as useful as being a half-half (however horribly phrased that is) but yeah.. for all you multicultural kids.. yay!</p>

<p>hmmm, there seems to be a lot of asians who got accepted.</p>

<p>so true.. or maybe its mainly the asains who are posting their decision status up..</p>

<p>true, that; the percentage of the population that is composed of minorities at WashU does not exceed that of white people. Therefore, one must conclude that there are many white people who have not posted their decisions on this forum.</p>
