4.15 GPA,1350 SAT, First gen, Latina, from California. Only one major leadership role (Art Club President) but most EC's were outside of school.

Good luck to everyone!! And if I've learned anything is that you should definitely invest time in your essays. Good writing CAN help make up for average/low stats.
