<p>Summer Activities: Nothing major :\, vacations I suppose? Went to Canada and China, worked at my uncle's newly opened restaurant, learned some French. China, went to visit family, might have mentioned how i noticed the increasing modernization in China (I lived there as a kid)</p>
<p>Essays: Common App - Wrote about my childhood in china and how it made me the person I am today. I liked the shorter one though - talked about Frisbee and how it inspires athleticism, camaraderie, and my involvement in helping make it a gym activity. Harvard essay talked about my growing interest in economics, when originally i was a math/science guy. Talked about how I want to make a difference in the American economic state. Both weren't terribly exciting, but concise and highlighted all the points i wanted to make. </p>
<p>Teacher Recommendation: One was phenomenal. My math teacher let me read it, basically went on about how my amazing grades were secondary to my desire to learn, how intelligent i am and yet still possess a refreshing innocence/lack of arrogance, my contributions to the math team, and how she's certain i'm destined for success. Chem teacher should be very good as well, maybe not as personal as my math teacher. Gov teacher should be pretty good, but I don't think harvard is reading this one. I just added it in case some schools wanted a humanities teacher. </p>
<p>Counselor Rec: never saw, but i assume it's good</p>
