School 2: UCLA - Anderson Status: Submitted 11/21/07 - Dinged School 3: Santa Clara Univeristy - Leavey Status: Did not apply And I'm sure I'll get dinged at every school *edit* glad I was wrong! What accepted.com said about zakk: Quote: zakk, I think you have a solid shot at both these programs. Your government background is unusual, your community profile is good, you appear to have some impact/leadership stories you can point to, and being Puerto Rican is a big asset in the diversity department. A 660-680 would make you competitive at these schools' part-time programs, so just make sure your whole application is strong: well executed essays, very strong reco letters, etc. Good luck, _________________ Paul Bodine / Accepted.com
