Essays: wrote it about my mother's drug abuse. There is no sympathy implied. I told the story, rather than made it sobby. I hate sob stories.
Recs: Both are really, really positive. Mostly, "Best in my career" checks.
No Interview yet...But my English teacher went there for Grad school, and her husband used to teach in the Core, so I might not even need an interview. Those alumni relations work in mysterious ways.</p>
