thanks for all the advice everyone.

to mardad:
thanks for the great advice, I will definitely do what you advised. I talked to my counselor and she agreed to write about my divorce in my rec. However, music isn’t really what I’m passionate about, and I’m planning to write about my passion for english and New York City(one of the major reasons I’m applying there) in my essay. Good/bad idea?

to confidentialcoll:
thanks for being realistic, I guess. Kinda what I expected with my low grades, but whatever :/. I can always apply for grad school I guess.

to adman921:
I’m glad you noticed my junior year and such; that’s exactly what I was trying to tell Columbia: that my grades were screwed up freshmen and sophomore, but I’m still smart enough to do well there. Again, is there any way I could make my “element”, writing and literature, to shine? I don’t have much besides my internship at the local paper, a literary arts officer, and a few writing competitions.

to shockwaveride:
what’s a “fit”?
