<p>[/ul]**General Comments: ** </p>

<p>I’m glad the whole process is over. It can be really intimidating, but for future applicants, it’s really not that bad. Show interest in the school, try your best on the SAT, put time into your essays, get to know your teachers, and with ECs its quality over quantity! (plus if they offer interviews, do it) I can’t wait to be a Mountain Hawk. Good luck to all future applicants!</p>
