[ /list][ b]Reflection[ /b][ list]
[ *] Strengths: Hard worker, rigorous course loud, very good at writing, my teachers regard me very highly and I’m known for working incredibly hard, so I’m sure they included that in their letters of recommendation. (I’m also Jewish… don’t know if that helped)
[ *] Weaknesses: not great test scores, but I think they could look past that with my essay and extracurriculars.
[ *] Why you think you were accepted/deferred/denied: My essay. Before people read it and they just saw my GPA and test scores, they weren’t 100% sure I would be able to get in. Once they read my essay, they said that any college would be blown away.
