[quote=Anonymous]I read who gets in and why too, and while very insightful, I’m not sure it gives a magic formula. What I took away from WGIAW it was: Be very smart and get an A and 5 on BC Calc junior year (especially if female as this illustrates high quant IQ.) Take the other hardest courses at your school and get As Apply ED and EA Be full pay Be recruited for a sport Most importantly, admission officers are human and make many seemingly random decisions Anyway, this “recipe” is not possible for most kids. For my kids, we are going to do a lot of rolling and EA schools and be happy with those schools. We are not getting attached to any one perfect school. I am encouraging my kid to apply to schools they fit their areas of interest but have admission rates above 50%. Maybe they will try for one harder to get into school for ED but that will be balanced with others that are more likely. [/quote]
