Don’t worry so much about the reading. The main thing is to show who you really are. And don’t worry about not getting in because you messed up the meforash; there were girls my year who were accepted and can barely read, but the school gives them extra tutoring at night if they need it. They base it on who you are, not on how great a translator you are. Good luck!
