<p>i really need some guidance. as we all do. i hope everyone good luck. seriously.</p>
<p>i don't see anything that your passionate about. you seem like any other applicant to those schools (high scores, high gpa, laundry list of activites). i think HYP are all reaches for you, maybe even columbia. you seem like a good candidate for cornell and brown. but definitely not a shoo-in. whats with the designer schools, and whatever happened to dartmouth?</p>
<p>You seem like the type of candidate who may very well end up getting rejected from every school you apply to, because you're just gunning to go to any old ivy and don't seem to have any focus or passion about anything.</p>
<p>yeah. I've got to agree... there isn't really anything that pops out or seems like something you had a true passion about. Its just the basic asian credentials.</p>
<p>thanks for the support guyz. i know that i don't really have "passions" i just want to get in to a good college that's all. that's my passion and goal for now.</p>
<p>That's a good reason, but not good enough for the colleges. In each application, especially for RD, you must demonstrate an interest in the college specifically, so that the college can be confident that you'll enrol if it accepts you. Do some research and find out which of the ivies you like the best. The quality of education is high at all of them, so it's up to you to pick the ones you like among them according to your personal preferences.</p>
