@JuicyMango I believe that it is worth it to write an appeal, as long as you are mentally prepared for it not to work. TomSr doesn’t realize that UCs don’t accept letters from guidance counselors as part of the process, so if you didn’t mention it in your application, you can mention it in an appeal. Also, I don’t really understand why people discourage others from appealing. There’s nothing you can lose, and as long as you stay realistic in your expectations, you should do it. I’d be willing to read your appeal if you want. I’m not an expert, but I’m currently drafting an appeal to UCLA so maybe we could help each other out?
