Recommendations
“John is a very motivated and dedicated student. He was very successful in my introductory Physics class. He participated fully in the class and was a pleasure to teach. I am pleased to give John my highest recommendation.”
- Richard Micklos, Professor
“John was in my Organic Chemistry class and Organic Chemistry Laboratory. The class size was small (16 Students) so I had plenty of opportunity to observe John's skills and ability. He was always prepared for the Laboratory and worked well with his lab partner. John is a very good student and worked very hard to achieve a good grade in both Organic Chemistry class and the Organic Chemistry Laboratory. He did well on the exams in the class.
John is a very conscientious, hard working and dedicated student who wants to achieve his goals. He is a very good candidate for whatever he plans to do in the future and should be successful in whatever undertaking or career path he takes.”
- Anthony J. Mancuso, Professor
