quarantine hair kinda wack but enjoy the second vid lol
But yeah as you can see I wasn't exactly the perfect student. I failed an AP Test and my unweighted GPA wasn't a 4.0 (forgot to mention this), yet I still was able to get into a competitive program (School of Computer Science acceptance rate is like 5% - 7% depending on the year). This is by no means a golden standard of what you should be aiming for, everyone's application story is different, and as long as you're authentic and passionate about what you do, you'll succeed regardless of wherever you end up :)
