<p>Essays
I have one really good common app essay that is really unique and well-writen but not personal enough. And I also have another that is really personal but a little less well-writen. My EC essay is about being a dorm prefect, which is really unique. My why this college essays are really good as well.</p>

<p>Recs
One from my advisor at school who is also my college advisor, should be pretty personal
One from my old advisor who will write about how I accomplished all my goals he ever set out for me – AMAZING rec
Two other recs from math and English teachers junior year, pretty good</p>
