Letter of Recommendation Information Form: Irene Kwon
The Common Application Teacher Evaluation asks me to rate you on the following areas. Please give me specific examples that would support a favorable rating for you in the above areas. Why would I rank you highly in these areas?
Academic achievement
I scored 35 on the ACT, 790 on the Math II SAT Subject Test, ended with a 4.43 GPA junior year, and was nominated as an “usher” at LAHS Graduation Ceremony 2016 to name a few. I have also taken numerous Advanced Placement (AP) classes and received all A’s, except for a B+ second semester of AP Chemistry.

As scientific studies show, men’s brains mature at the age of 43, eleven years later than woman, and this shows in many aspects of my high school career; of course, the latter can be shown too at school.

Furthermore, through my experience and performances in speech and debate, I have gained self-confidence when speaking in front of large crowds or groups of people. Class presentations are fun and enjoyable now.
Initiative,
