</code></pre>

<p>Subjective</p>

<pre><code>* Essays: Not So Good...I think I came off a bit arrogant although that's not me at all. My RD essays are absolutely amazing though, I won UMICH's 'best essay scholarship' with one of them which is impressive considering there are 20k applicants. Very good sign as I enter RD decisions.
* Teacher Recs: T1: Best Student in 30 years, I planned her AP curriculum
* Counselor Rec: Who knows? She likes me because I'm a good student and respectful, but she is extremely inexperienced in elite colleges. We haven't sent anyone in maybe 20 years to a top 10 school.
