Essays: Common App (8/10). I pretty much talked about why I want to be an engineer and how it’s become an identity that I work towards just like my family did at various point of their lives.
Teacher Recommendations: Got one from my math/computer science teacher, another from my biology teacher, and then a third from my psychology teacher. Math and biology will be pretty good, but psychology will be pretty lackluster since he doesn’t know me very well.

Reflection:
Strengths: My course load has been very rigorous. I took pre-calc over the summer so I could take AP Calc BC in senior year which my teachers said looked good. My extracurriculars are pretty strong, especially the robotics thing.
Weaknesses: I did pretty bad during the first quarter of my senior year, but I’m doing pretty good second quarter so it should balance out for my semester averages.
