[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]EQ does matter in admissions. The weak letters wouldn't be because of extenuating circumstances, they would be because of choices you made not to engage with your teachers. If you're capable of having "a 4.0, 1540+ SAT, a clear “spike," national and international awards/programs," you would also have been capable of speaking with your teachers about your absences.[/quote] This. Absent 80% of the time means present 1 day a week. During the study period, lunch, before or after school you should have been communicated with the teachers and tried to get them to know you. Ask them to be honest with you ant what they might be able to say now. [/quote]
