[quote=Anonymous]A lot of luck, obviously. Her stats were solid, excellent even, but definitely not perfect. My guess without having any sort of insider information was that all the holistic admissions stuff really worked in her favor, as I looked at her application she was able to tell a pretty compelling story of herself, what motivated her, what was important to her, and demonstrate that through the activities and awards etc. Her main common app essay was a bit meandering and lyrical, not about a topic per se, but tied a lot of other things in her application together And was a delightful read I thought. From knowing the teachers who wrote her letters I also assume they were very strong.[/quote]
