Thanks you guys a lot....
First round, I applied to Indiana Trio. Now with Notre Dame under my belt, I feel a little bit more confident.
My profile (for preference):
- Age: 24, almost 25, male, Vietnamese
- almost 2 years work experiences in software industry in Vietnam. (this will encourage applicants with little experiences)
- GMAT 710 (Q50, V35, AWA 5.0)
- GPA: aprox 3.5. (I used the conversion scale of an organization in U.S)
- Essays edited by talented Rhyme.

AWESOME card. I wish I found out Cornell with something like that... I would have been jumping up and down... So much more fanfare than a fedex notification!

Congrats man. I'm really happy for you.

just some experiences to anyone who apply to Notre Dame: you should try to visit the school. I believe it strongly affected my application. By the time I was there, I showed that who I am, and show all my interest to the school. Also don't forget to show your passion to sport and your admire to their foot ball team. The stadium their is wonderful, and almost every people there love their football team.
