<p>Last summer I was an IT intern at Praxis Housing Initiatives in NYC. Its a non-profit that helps find housing for homeless people with HIV/AIDs. </p>

<p>Also, my parents are first generation immigrants from Argentina, I am hispanic and the language spoken at home is Spanish. Neither of my parents have gone to college and I come from a very low-income family.</p>

<p>Thanks for the assessment... You don't think I'd get into any of the ivies?? Getting into Harvard, Princeton, or Yale is probably a coinflip or less, but I do think I have a good shot at UPenn or Dartmouth. Anyways, the following is my list sorted out:</p>

Princeton
Yale
Columbia</p>

<p>Reach/Middle:
UPenn
