<p>great, very personal counselor rec and one teacher rec.
excellent essays - one is about how i memorized my first violin piece, one is a poem that i wrote last year about who i am as a person, and one is about my neighbor and her split pea soup :)</p>
<p>my GC told me i should think of UVA as a safety, but i wasn't sure...
i'm pretty sure i'm in top 5%, but my school doesn't rank.
thanks!</p>
