[quote=Anonymous]bottom line - they are looking for a consistent track record of STEM awesomeness - consistent high map-m scores 275+, years of STEM-based extra circular stuff i.e. math competitions & science fair participation, solid As across STEM subjects, 100+ hours of volunteering. for FARMS kids the bar will be lower but the rest of applications will be in one big pool. no one will know if the kid from a particular middle school or of a particular race. Student is assigned a number so they cant easily guess what is the ethnicity unless in the essay kid mentions that they are bilingual. but I think they know the gender. our kid went though the process this year and it was very very stressful for all 8th graders that had aspersions to get into these competitive programs.
