<p>Work Experience
-Used to work at a couple of fast food restaurants. Not sure if they are worth mentioning</p>

<p>I think I bring something unique to the table because for one of my research projects I actually extensively read and cited the work of a VR lab at Stanford. I am really interested in the work of a professor, and post-doc at Stanford.</p>

<p>Right now I'm really torn between applying Early to Stanford, and ED to Columbia SEAS or Dartmouth. Columbia and Dartmouth are actually need blind to Canadians.</p>
