School has no AP classes.</p>
<p>my last year’s form teacher/english teacher’s recommendation is apparently short, he said. (he has never done this before so he didn’t know what to write).</p>
<p>I guess my guidance counselor rec is screwed as my form teacher this year gave it to the dude in charge of education or don’t know what (he doesn’t really have a title in school) and plus he is screwing everyone so that everyone will stay for the 6th year in HS. and he has never taught me, I met him the first time just now, he has no idea what kind of student am I so that rec is probably screwed to heck. I feel like punching him. And he insisted that he HAS to write the rec just because he’s the edu guy.</p>
<p>I thought that my essay is quite brilliant but I need to leave it and then go back and read it. I’m gonna give it to my English teacher to proofread it too.</p>
<p>erm, what I’d know if I even have the slightest chance for Stern with my stupid SAT scores (I can’t sit still beyond Section 6/7 and that’s my weakness 
)</p>
<p>thank you so much guys.</p>
<p>(sorry I forgot to put in the school names in the title but I edited and apparently it’s not showing.)</p>
