Essay: about how certain aspects of my culture angered me and resulted in me becoming a feminist and believing that I had to hate my culture to be a feminist, but I eventually realized that I could love my culture and be a feminist (sorry if this is a little confusing lol), several teachers and my counselor read it and loved it so I give it a 9/10
Why BU essay: I thought it was really good at first but I reread it recently and I don’t like it that much so I’m lowkey freaking out
Letter of Recs: Teacher 1: 7/10
Teacher 2: 9/10
DECA advisor: 10/10
Counselor: didn’t read, but we’re really close so I’m sure it was good!

Income: I need a lot of aid lol, so pretty nervous about the potential FA package I would receive, since BU is need aware
