Integermania! - First Four Primes

The first four prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, and 7.  Create each of the positive integers using one copy of each number, and any standard operations.  All four numbers must be used, but no others.  Your solutions will be assigned an exquisiteness level.

Use the online submissions page to get your Integermania solutions posted here!  This problem is now in semi-retired status, so you may submit an unlimited number of solutions each month.
