Additional info?
Two rec additional rec letters from internships.
Our school is best in the county and sends 1-5 people to top notch schools (MIT, Yale, Princeton, etc)
My two teachers have good stuff to say on rec letters. (done way more stuff with them than sitting in classroom)

I might seem like the stereotypical asian I guess. But my life story is more unique than you think.
