[quote=Anonymous]There is no single right path to prepare your child to get into a top college. Provide your kid the opportunities to follow their interests academic and otherwise but the drive has to come from them. Top colleges are looking for kids who will contribute in some way to campus life. My daughter didn't seriously think about college until beginning of her sophomore year in HS and she's now very happy at Princeton. She was a very driven student/athlete in HS (certainly not a perfect student mostly A's but a few B's sprinkled in) but she took a challenging course load and like the previous poster, her athletic ability became her hook into the Ivy League.
