@yonceonhismouth OP reports a B+ GPA and middling SATs (hopefully improvement w/retake). The sorts of schools that would likely admit him/her aren’t the cream of the crop, you know. Those, by and large, admit solely based on transcripts and SAT/ACT scores. Thus, worrying about essays or teacher recs is likely a moot point. The OP like the vast majority of college bound seniors – simply won’t need them b/c the likely suite of target schools don’t want them, don’t need them. OP should start with a list of nearby public schools that are affordable, google their common data sets and see where he/she stands.
