<p>Aside from the teaching hip-hop, you seem like a typical Asian applicant to me, or at least not a non-typical Asian.</p>

<p>i dont know where you shoudl apply but you should definetely try to seperate yourself from being the typical asian... use teaching hip-hop in ur essays. exploit it... otherwises ur gonna be a number against a number among your category</p>

<p>damn i'm getting sick of these ,why u should apply as a non-typical Asian student in order to make u feel better and HOW DO U KNOW THEY DON'T WANT TYPICAL ASIAN? i don't think any of the skin colors matters as long as ur satisfied with yourself first. if u don't even get along with your own ethnic , i think these colleges will only look down on you.
in a word,just be yourself !!! if u have faith in it ,better than make urself a not typical asian honey.</p>

<p>firstly, napova wat the heck are u talking about?</p>

<p>lol that came off a little harsh. but nothing you said is justified. it is true that asians are way too over-represented in the applicant pool, and generally have higher stats. in order to not be an average asian, ppl really do need to stand out</p>
