<p>Strenght- lots of Leadership positions, attended Camp RYLA (rotary youth leadership award), dedicated to clubs, sports, black belt in taekwondo, won lots of sparring competitions (main essay was about my struggle against my second encounter with the only girl to ever defeat me in a official match), Varsity Track Co-Captain, Only girl on wrestling team Freshman year, Lots of Community Services, good work experiences</p>
<p>Weakness: Low GPA, got more C's than i should have in AP classes( honestly, i think i got at least 6 C's). I really stink in math, and do really well in English classes. But ironically, I did way better in the math portion on the SATs</p>
<p>good luck to everyone who really wants to go here, UCSC is one of my top school and i'm just still waiting for Irvine, but i don't think i got in with this delay of a response. :]</p>
