<p>I don't know -- but in considering the other 20% of the application, I would imagine that a good recommendation, especially if they know the recommender, would help -- along with your resume of music activities and experience. Good luck!</p>
<p>Just out of curiosity...do the admissions people send "I liked your essay" e-mails to everyone they admit, or just a few?</p>
<p>'Cause, heh, I haven't gotten that e-mail.</p>
<p>I didn't get one. I'm sure MOST of the counselors don't have time to do that. I'm not worried though</p>
<p>I got in!!!yaaaaayyyyyy!!</p>
