14. What is a Brag Sheet?? In order for your counselor to do the very best job representing you in the college admissions process, we are asking you to spend some time this semester completing this student information sheet. Thoughtfully answer all the questions on your brag sheet. Teachers and counselors will be referring to your brag sheet throughout the year to be able to write you great letters of recommendation. You will also be referring to this for your college applications. The questions with asterisks were taken directly from the Cal State EOP application. Everyone who applies to a Cal State will also be applying to EOP. (work in progress) Coming soon!!!
