<p>I have only written what I was able to write in for my UC apps. I find myself lacking in a lot of places especially because my race is Korean. I am fairly sure that I will not get into UCLA, but my mother was a cancer researcher for them for 2 years (only hope in getting in LOL). I fell through some personal difficult times during sophomore year that honestly I feel like everyone goes through, but I was so scared and depressed that I shut myself from friends and trying in school. I literally thought I was a monster. My GPA was destroyed when I got a 3.4 average that year; however, I recovered during junior, achieving a 4.4 average GPA (straight A's during second semester) while taking 4 APs. I am aware that I am seriously lacking compared to my competition. If would you please give me your sincere thought about my chances of getting into these colleges above, I would be grateful. Thank you.</p>
