what's going on with sdn? why is it so dead?

Just because you don't get an answer to your question within a literal hour or two doesn't mean that SDN is dead or anyone is ignoring your question.

I saw your thread a while back, but didn't respond because I didn't think I could give a good answer. I'd wager a guess that most people thought the same.

Now that I've posted, I feel like I should give some kind of answer: I don't think this is a good adversity topic unless you can show how you were able to grow from the experience, which can be difficult to explain from this. I also don't think it's good because you could easily be construed as trying to garner pity for something that didn't necessarily affect your education too much.

lol why, I doubt it's that bad and I'm sure its not what will decide between an II or not if it's just the word "bullying", as in "other people were bullying me"

Maybe you could give specific examples? “Other people were pulling my pants down” or whatever

I was bullied in school due to my race. Can this be a good adversity topic?

Depends on how you overcame this, and the specifics of what happened. It may be better to frame this around your ability to fit in despite your differences. Just my thoughts.

This thread is another example of why adcom/faculty advice here is valuable, since otherwise, it just becomes a situation of the blind leading the blind.

You have a good topic OP and I suggest following gonnif's comments.
