Should I even bother with an appeal?

Hey, guys. Thanks for the encouragement. I decided that I will be sending in my appeal by the end of this week so I am really (really!) hoping for the best. Omg, UW is what I’ve been working for in high school…and it’s seriously been very stressful. I have written an appeal but does anyone want to read over it? I just want to make sure it’s not a pity-fest…

@virak, it’s on their website so google “UW appeal” and you should find it within the first five links.

@speed, If I send in my resume, should I still include the things i’ve listed when I first applied? I just recently got a job so I’ll mention that. Also, one of my rec is from a past UW administrator (my english teacher) and she was really surprised I wasn’t accepted when people with lower stats than mine got in. Would that help?

Thanks in advance, everyone.
