<p>Hi guys. I'm getting ready to start applying in August and I'd love a bit of advice. I've attended an online public HS (accredited) for the past four years which has allowed me the time to pursue things I'm interested in. I have a few safeties (not listed) which I'm an auto-admit to, but I'd love to know if I seem competitive for the schools/programs below. Also would love to know my weaknesses if possible. Thanks so much in advance! :)</p>

<p>Recommendations:
AP Language Teacher (Junior Year) - She's had me in a few different classes over the past bunch of years and I've always excelled in them.</p>
<p>Not positive about the other teacher recommendation, maybe my AP Biology teacher will write me one as I had her for Honors Bio in Freshman Year.</p>
<p>A family friend (Yale Graduate) is also writing me one. Known him my whole life.</p>
