</ul>
<p>[ b]Reflection**</p>
<ul>
<li>[ *] Strengths: Strong Math SAT; Math Education is where I intend to study. Autism was a good hook, I think. Extracurriculars and volunteer work was plentiful.
[ *] Weaknesses: Being out of state, weak freshman year grades, didn’t show all that strong commitment to the school anyway, wasn’t near my top choice. Weak CR SAT score(reading comprehension is an issue), didn’t qualify for credit on AP Lang.
[ *] Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected: I’m not sure. Bit of a surprise. maybe I had too many weaknesses, not a strong enough commitment to the school, or a much more competitive applicant pool than I expected.
[ *] Where else were you accepted/deferred/rejected: All acceptances: Salisbury University, Towson University, UMBC, University of Maryland, University of Massachusetts(Amherst), University of Connecticut.</li>
</ul>
<p>[ b]General Comments:** My perfect record of acceptances was tainted… 
But I got into UMD which was my top choice so I don’t really care now. :D</p>
<p>VERY sorry for the double post, but I’d like to add that I applied by the priority deadline too. Makes it even more surprising.</p>
