<p>Academic...

A **** ton of "Highest grade in [insert subject]"
A lot of other generic sh#t, won't waste your time with it
Math League Highscorer</p>
<p>Essays+Recs good, English teacher called essay "great piece of work". Stresses how skateboarding taught me to deal with failure+set goals (skateboarding club is only really "quirky" activity and I spend about 10+ hrs a week on it) plus another one about my aunt who has Down's Syndrome...tied it into my mentoring of autistic kids.</p>
<p>Should I wait until RD or what? Will this give me a significant advantage by applying ED II? I really like Swarthmore...whatever. Oh..and they only consider your highest SATIIs? Because I'm retaking Math IIC in January...</p>
