<p>a lot of this stuff may seem bland and typical competitive college applicant, but i don't think people are really able to fit into numbers and statistics. i feel like my recommendations will be top-notch because my english teacher called my house to speak about my recommendation and she said it was one of the best she recalls writing and would be surprised if i didn't get in to college (didnt mention which one though). my history teacher said my recommendation was the best one he wrote. they really know me through school and clubs.</p>
