<p>(Please note that I am basing this conclusion on patterns I’ve observed from other finalists. I’m not an authority on the subject!)</p>

<p>In light of your incredibly low income, your grades may not be too obstructive. What is your unweighted GPA and estimated rank? I would think that good essays were absolutely vital in your case.</p>
