Your recommenders are key allies. Here's how to work with them productively.
Have you already lined up your recommenders? If not, get cracking, because they are your key allies in the application process. Best case scenario, you already talked to them at the end of 11th grade about writing recommendations for you. But if you're a senior and you haven't already done so, it's not too late.
1. Confirm your individual colleges' requirements for teacher recommendations: how many and in which subjects. Make appointments to meet with your recommenders. Look out for specific requirements that might influence whom you ask to be a recommender. Ask for any scholarship recommendations at the same time so that you don't have to go back to the same people with new requests.
2. Play nicely with your school counselor. Admissions officers place a lot of weight on what school counselors have to say about an applicant in the school report, and a negative report can be the kiss of death. What the admissions officer learns from the school report will have a direct bearing on your academic rating by the admissions officer. Follow the rules and work within the system (your counselor is bound by school policies as much as you are), give your counselor as much lead time as possible, and take any opportunity to let the counselor get to know you.
4. Waive access to your recommendations. Under the law, you have the right to see your recommendations (and all other application materials that remain in your student record) after you have been admitted to and enroll in a college, unless you waive that right. The recommendation forms give you an opportunity to waive your access rights. Typically, the only reason applicants decline to waive access is when applicants are concerned about what the recommender might say and want to discourage the recommender from saying anything negative. That creates a new and equally serious problem: a recommendation that will not have much heft. When you do not waive access, you are not only sending a signal to the recommender, you are also sending a signal to the admissions officer, who might conclude that this recommendation cannot be fully trusted because the recommender could not be completely frank. You're better off waiving your access.
5. Be polite. Always. The way you interact with these allies shapes their impression of you. Any whiff of entitlement or ingratitude will count against you. So will blowing them off. Follow up with them, find out if they need anything from you, make sure you get them what they need, and when your applications are wrapped up, send them thank-you notes.

The original Honda CR-V design was released in the 1990s, and it's seen a lot of success since that time. Honda has made several changes over the years to keep up with the automobile market's developments, but it's still a very affordable and simple vehicle. The 2022 version of the Honda CR-V crossover is the same as the previous year. No major changes have been made. Honda has been teasing a very different 2023 model, and there may be an all-electric version in the coming years.

Trim Levels
You have several trim levels to choose from if you're interested in the 2022 Honda CR-V. The base model and most affordable option is the LX. You can upgrade to the EX, EX-L, EX Hybrid, EX-L Hybrid, Touring, and Touring Hybrid. We recommend taking a look at the EX-L first. It's the middle-of-the-road option that includes standard features like heated seats in the front, dual-zone climate control, a power-controlled driver's seat, blind-spot monitoring, all-wheel drive, Android Auto / Apple CarPlay, and more. There is a touch screen infotainment system in this trim level, and it comes in all of the trim levels except the base model LX.
The inside of the CR-V is impressive for the 2022 model year, thanks to faux-wood accents throughout, chrome finishes, and upgraded materials throughout in the higher trim levels. Both the driver and passengers will be comfortable thanks to high-end seats, and there's a good amount of cargo space and passenger space. If you upgrade to one of the higher trim levels, you'll reap the benefits of SiriusXM satellite radio, navigation capabilities, and a nine-speaker sound system.
On the outside of the CR-V, you'll find a very sporty-looking design that looks a lot like their Honda Pilot design. This is essentially the smaller version of the Pilot, though it still provides a lot of interior space and great features throughout. You can choose between shades like Aegean Blue Metallic, Crystal Black Pearl, Sonic Gray Pearl, and Lunar Silver Metallic for exterior color choices.
Honda is a brand that cares about the safety of its customers, and the 2022 CR-V has plenty of standard safety features. Their driver-assistance package includes things like forward collision warning technology, which alerts you if there's a potential front-end impact that you're not reacting to. Automatic emergency braking will help you slow your vehicle in this scenario. Lane-keep assist technology is used to ensure you're staying in your lane when driving by providing you with alerts and helping you to correct your positioning automatically. Adaptive cruise control is a standard feature as well.
The 2022 Honda CR-V comes equipped with a 1.5-liter engine that can achieve 190 horsepower as you commute from Sulphur, LA to Jennings, LA. It comes with a continuously variable automatic transmission. If you're interested in towing potential, you have 1500 pounds of towing ability. The brakes are upgraded to provide a safe ride, and the steering system makes for a very smooth trip. If you're interested in the CR-V hybrid trim level, it comes with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors. It can achieve 212 horsepower.
