Thanks for the input. I sent the page that you cited, Dionysus, to my referee when I was requesting a reference. But unfortunately, she does not seem to have heeded much of its advice. However, the reference is solid and I think I will just go with it. After all, it does accurately portray who I am.

Sarah9, I plan on making an application to UCL for Eastern European Studies and Economics with a Year Abroad and Oxford for PPE. I’ll probably throw in a few more schools because we can choose 5 (?), but those are my top two. I’m still researching unis, however, so those could change =) What about you?
