<p>Excellent Teacher recs
Background: Fluent in five languages
Born in Russia- learned the language there
Moved to germany later on and learned both german and spanish as i stayed with a relative who was fluent in both
Came to America at age 7 and picked up Chinese
I'm thinking my personal statement should be my experience on living in so many different areas. </p>
<p>seriously, the ‘fluent in five languages’ would be enough for you to have a good chance without all the top grades. Just don’t forget to show you’re passionate about stuff ;-)</p>
<p>URM + Legacy already makes you a strong candidate. Perfect standardized test scores basically plus presidents of a couple of clubs. Plus 5 languages.</p>
<p>So? His parents could have been on vacation in Russia. He may seem unique but I wouldn’t go out calling people ■■■■■■ without any real evidence.</p>
<p>So it’s implausible for someone who attended harvard to live in Russia for a short period? because that’s what my dad did. & because i’ve moved a lot, and i happen to be fluent in five languages, that must automatically discredit me? if anything, you’re the ■■■■■.</p>
<p>Okay, Harvard will probably recalculate GPA (or will notice the As versus A-s).</p>
<p>Good to know, but then your GPA isn’t as high as 4.0 UW (at least to compare to others). </p>
<p>You’re in everywhere. Good luck at whatever college you want to go to. Seriously, was there any question? I understand that some people get wracked up about the admissions process, but it really surprises me that you needed our reassurance. “No, clearly you have no chance of getting in anywhere. You’re screwed.” Haha. I think that you yourself know how qualified you area.</p>
<p>Congratulations on your accomplishments. Write good essays, and have fun at HYPSM.</p>
<p>You haven’t got a scaled point off on any standardized test and you have all A’s. It’s just going to come down to essay and recs. Try to not send a message that you have no personality and you should get in easily…but you might get rejected from like one school just because it’s random. I’d say you have an excellent shot at Harvard though.</p>
