<p>2 Recommendations are coming from her junior year teachers</p>

<p>Due to transfer, she could not concentrate one thing for long time and did very good job. I also concern her recommendation letter. She only studied one year(Junior year in Washting state) and moved to CA this year. Her problem is no any teach knows her very well.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>She should write really good essays, showing intellectual vitality, and real interest in something.
She has the stats, but she needs to show some personality to have a chance.</p>

<p>i don't know the % of international applicants getting in, but it is disgustingly low. And being asian too doesn't seem to help.</p>

<p>Her scores are competitive but the ECs are weaker than many others.</p>

<p>Just as the previous post said, she will need to stress her characteristics - maybe even an essay about math (that seems to be her thing)</p>
