** My Trig and Gov teachers will give me amazing recs as will my counselor**


I come from an extremely low income family (Less than 10000 a year.) My parents are divorced and I live with my mom. I am a first generation college attendee.


Thanks so much for your help. I know these can be annoying. Please be brutally honest

Your numbers are decent, but you are a little lacking in the EC's. If your recs and essays were stellar, then you will have a fair shot.

Mind you, I'm just an ED applicant myself, so my word doesn't mean much. But I feel like the fact that you're at the top of a class of 740 and a first generation college attendee speaks very well for you. Your ACT score is at the top of their middle 50%, too.

I don't see many scenarios where you don't get accepted (basically you have a very very good chance)
