I think you haven't received any responses because no one knows what kind of advice and criticism you want. As you may have noticed, chances threads don't really get much in the way of responses on this forum. Your stats are your stats, so there's nothing more you can do at this point except work on your essays. Enjoy your visit and best of luck!
