[</em>] Teacher Recs: Only one, my physics teacher from last year. It was pretty good. Talked about how I am an amazing physics student and would be a great engineer, etc. stuff like that was the focus. Which is half good half bad- WPI IS an engineering school, but my major is actuarial sciences, not engineering lol
[<em>] Counselor Rec: Never saw it. My counselor doesn’t know me all that well, so I’m not sure how she wrote it, but I’m sure she wouldn’t have said anything negative (they ask the teacher for unput on what to say since we literally NEVER meet with our GCs…all my teachers love me, and that’s reflected in my grades, sooo)
