<p>I would say that my essay was...unique. The topic was the way I view the world. It was well written. I also had one incredible recommendation and one good recommendation. Counselor's School Report was okay considering she doesn't know my very well. I'm also an AP Scholar with Distinction and nominee and possible candidate for All-State Scholar.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Epic fail.</p>

<p>Just kidding! Hi Kristin!</p>

<p>Just for clarity's sake, I know KristinxAJ. We go to school together.
For others chancing, I will vouch for her and say that the essay and incredible rec will be a tremendous amount of help.</p>

<p>I think you have a great transcript on your hands. You have a pretty good chance of getting into Columbia. You seem well-rounded and everything. If your recommendations are really that solid, I think you will have a fighting chance. Don't stop believing</p>

<p>Scores are a bit low, but Native American = Most likely in.</p>

<p>Oh man if only I could be a Native American from Alaska... sigh...</p>

<p>Ha. That's exactly what I thought. I don't want to rely on the Native American thing...but if it helps, I don't care.</p>
