<p>OTHER</p>
<p>-Commonapp essay was probably one of the best i've ever written, about volunteering at the free clinic, and why the country needs universal health care</p>
<p>-Supplement essay was pretty good too, told what i learned from my friend's funeral about not judging people based on superficial labels</p>
<p>-First rec form went to academic decathlon coach and history/economics teacher, with whom i've spent most of my time in high school. He's been teaching for 35+ years, and writes awesome reccomendations</p>
<p>-Second went to spanish teacher and NHS advisor, whom i also know pretty well. he's a relatively young teacher, though, and isn't as experienced in writing recs.</p>
<p>-If it matters, i think another person from my school is applying. second in the class and has a 2310 SAT score, but with less impressive ECs.</p>
<p>Thanks again for helping me out!</p>
