<p>Essays:
I wrote so many. There were two main ones I really put my time on. Overall, I wrote my essays with honesty, meaning it really shows who I am.</p>
<p>Rec. letters:
One from counselor - descent.
One from AP Chem / AP Phys teacher. Great one, better than counselor.
One from AP Bio teacher. He is solely writing it for UPenn since it's the only school that requires 2 teacher rec. He's impressed with me (anyone can tell, I am one of the only few seniors in his class) plus he knows what i am doing. Really excellent one.</p>
<p>So... chances at:
UPenn (CAS)
UIUC
USC
UC Berkeley (chemical bio)
UCLA (biochem)
Rice
Villanova
Case
Marquette</p>
