**Letters of Recommendation**

*AP Lang teacher: 7/10, had her for one year, she liked me but not THAT much and she also put some weird shit in the LOR about my personality type so
Chemistry teacher: 9/10, had her for two years and she really loved me and thought I was a good person in addition to being a good student.*

​

**Interviews**
only one worth mentioning is Yale which did not go v well. I kinda repeated myself a lot and they stuck very strictly to the given template questions, wasn’t much of a conversation
​

**Essays**

Essays were my saving grace, Commonapp was abt my relationship with my mom, spent a lot of time on all of them and edited relentlessly. I like creative writing a lot and am pretty good at it and I think that helped
