WSJ: How Not to Get Into College

<p>^ It honestly was a moment of frustration…I did make my essays and try to be myself, have an opportunity to stand out, etc. </p>

<p>Also, I want to clarify that I was using unique in the sense of gender, race, geographic location, not in terms of personality…And no, I don’t think admissions should be offered or not offered based on those things (gender, race, location) that people can not change! </p>

<p>Obviously, i know there are not many spots and I know I am not “entitled” to any spot whatsoever because I worked hard. If anything, I know there’s less than a 5% chance RD at the schools I’m applying to! That was never my intention.</p>

<p>I don’t really want to argue anymore-I just wanted to clarify a few things with this post.</p>
