<p>One question, how are you a first generation college student if your mother is a doctor?</p>

3

<p>that's what I was wondering...but both my parents graduated from colleges outside the U.S...so my question is, isn't that first generation when applying to American schools?</p>

<p>*my mom regained her license after USMLE 1 and 2 exams for her to practice in the U.S.</p>

4

<p>It's not first generation in that case.
Your stats and EC are good, it all depends on your recs and essays</p>

5

<p>ah, ok thanks man...well, i haven't put that i am a first generation anywhere...</p>

<p>any actual chances?</p>

6

<p>In at all, except maybe not Harvard and Yale. Crapshoot, as always.</p>

7

<p>You're competitive. :) lol @ the muscle-building and powerlifting EC's as well as muscle enhancement EC's. Haha.</p>

<p>So basically: I say you're not a definite "in"... or "out" though. Good luck!</p>
