[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did your kid decide on an essay topic? Whom to ask for recommendation letter? To add anything to the additional info section on the application.[/quote] 1.) Talked through ideas with me. (I'm the more involved parent.) 2.) Your school will provide some guidance on this. Our school recommends two teachers from core academic subjects from junior year. Some schools will say, one core academic teacher, then the other one can be from an elective teacher or a teacher from an earlier grade. 3.) Most advice says no, don't add anything. My kids all had some reasons for grade dips. But explaining them would have run the risk of sounding like they were making excuses. So, they did not elaborate. [/quote]
