Rec Letters:
Teacher 1 - I had a high grade in this class. I think the teacher liked me, but he didn’t know me all that well, so it might be slightly impersonal. We did bond over certain things though, like fantasy football. (7/10)
Teacher 2 - I did pretty well in this class. The teacher definitely liked me, and I talked to her a lot outside of school about managing stress, living a balanced life, etc. I do feel like I “grade-grubbed” a bit in this class, but I think she still liked me enough to write me an excellent rec. (8-9/10)
Outside Recommender - One of the principals at the school I run my program at. He has gotten to know me really well, and I think he wrote an awesome letter. (9.5-10/10)
What do you guys think for Ross? Also, what is the acceptance rate for students who are already accepted to LSA into Ross?
