OMG...in the last picture you look so much like mom! Don't forget to study! Please get into Princeton or Stanford. Rice is good but you can do alot better. And don't even think about going to UT or A&M cuz those schools are generally for people who could never get into Rice. Another thing, make sure you never check that you are Asian or Asian American and make sure your school types out only Iris H. Lin. Do not type out your full middle name or you might be instantly rejected by some schools. The reasoning is since there is affirmative action at most private schools, you will be compared to other Asian applicants (hence way higher average SAT scores and GPA) so remember never to check that you are Asian or include your entire middle name. Love ya lots!!!

That would be lying. You should either check that you are Caucasian or leave the question blank. Get great recommendations, write an essay that's going to blow them away, make sure you have internship and leadership experience, and score high on the SATs. Indicate any special talents you may have such as a certain instrument or sport. If you have a high SAT score, your GPA won't matter as much.
