Please Chance Me

Colleges and Universities A-Z Babson College
1

I’m a senior from a highly competitive public school in MD, and I’m interested in applying for Babson. Upon first glance, I think I have a good chance, but I think I’m missing something. Anyway, here’s my portfolio:

Asian male - 3.84 UW/4.64 W GPA
SAT: 1540
I take classes that interest me. 8 AP’s for the record.

EC’s:
Started the first International high school mock trial and esport teams (Super Smash Bros + LoL lessgo) in my county
Internship at a university physics lab since junior year
Started and failed a media business
Started an investment portfolio about a month ago that is on track to outperform most index funds
published twice for math/science research and opinion pieces
volunteered on three political campaigns cuz I wanted to
Former cricket player and state Jiu Jitsu competitor (black belt) – had two tailbone injuries early sophomore year and haven’t competed since. Too sick :frowning:

I’m a good writer, but I take forever to write stuff and hold myself to high standards. I also tend to take risks while writing.

I used to be interested in the traditional high-end institutions (Ivies, MITs, Stanfords) for computer science, but after considerable research and some industry experience, I’m far more passionate about Babson and entrepreneurship.

Thanks in advance for the chancing :slight_smile:

Write a good essay on why babson is a good fit for you and why you like entrepreneurship and the programs and you are a shoe in. That being said, you should know that while Babson spends a lot of money on its entrepreneurship program and is ranked #1 in that area, most students actually don’t major in it. From what I’ve heard, many students take entrepreneurship classes here and there but end up majoring in finance, management, etc.
