<p>Yes,</p>

<p>You are certainly on the right track. I would recommend one thing. Involve yourself in some community EC’s on top of your school EC’s. It always helps doing an EC that is unique, makes you stand above the crowd.</p>

<p>If you are good at writing, submit to essay contests.</p>

<p>Definitely go for a safety, as you’re from one of the most competitive demographic groups on the planet.
And the last guy was right. What you have is really good, but going against the stereotype would help. Maybe you could use that as a topic.
And I wish my school had Latin instead of stupid French! Virgil rocks!</p>

<p>what do you mean, as a topic??</p>
