<p>Well, I've always had a desire to attend UC- Irvine and it would be a dream come true if I could get in, and UCSD is just another reach school. Here are my stats and resume..</p>
<p>It may seem uncanny to all that my GPA is fairly high and my SAT's are fairly low, but I just dont do well on Standardized testing.. I dont know, maybe anxiety, anyways... Thank you all for your consideration on this matter.</p>

<p>I have excelled in Extra Curriculars and have held many leadership positions, and have attended many leadership programs. I'm not sure if it is helpful, but UC-Davis and Berkeley have invited me to apply for their Leadership Scholarship.. I was also Ecstatic when I received a letter from UC Irvine to attend a Stay Over Program!(Does this mean anything? or is it just random?)</p>
