<p>I have no idea what’s on my teacher reccs. My English teacher one might be a bit meh though-- she got a tad annoyed when the Emory Scholars deadline hit her. I prepared like a dozen sheets of info about me as she requested and gave her about a month to do it, but that wasn’t enough apparently. Still, I got Emory Scholars (Semifinalist so far), so it can’t have been too bad.</p>
<p>I have no idea what my Bio teacher wrote. I saw one of her adjectives was “motivated” though. Not a bad adjective IMO.</p>
<p>I got my AP English III teacher and AP Bio teacher to do my reccs. They’re both phD’s, and I did well in their classes (A’s in Bio, 1 B 1 A in English) and on the AP exam. I wasn’t “the best” gradewise in either class, but probably one of the better students and did stuff to stand out in those classes.</p>
<p>Hopefully they checked top 5%-- I’m pretty sure I got at least top 10%. If they felt generous though, maybe they put higher? :D</p>
<p>In the end the score matters little. If the teacher writes a good recc, that will show much more than that little box they checked off.</p>
<p>I wanted to waive my right, but my mom was like “nah, we want to see what they wrote”.</p>
