Essay Topics

Common App Essay

The essay was about a unique topic (grilling) and was very authentic.

Interview Experiences
  • Lehigh University
  • Performance/Outcome: Kinda dry and I got a little rambly at points but I was able to get my interests across.
  • Tufts University
  • Performance/Outcome: Really great interview and really just clicked.
Letters of Recommendation
  • Physics Teacher

    Had him for two years of classes including AP Physics and always did extra outside of class. I don't think he's an exceptional writer but I have feeling it was a solid enough letter.

  • History Teacher

    Had her for three classes and she was class government advisor. She nominated me for the social studies awards so I think it was overall a very good letter.

  • English Teacher

    Only had her for this year and this letter was only sent to Brown University after my deferral. One of my favorite teachers and she loved all my work so I would guess it was a great letter.
