[quote=Anonymous]I mean, I don’t know the same people you know but my unhooked public school kid got herself into a HYP Ivy without the parent involvement and cash outlay you seem to assume is required, and when I think of other kids I know who had similar outcomes I’d say it looks similar to our situation. We aren’t wealthy - dh is self employed and I work in the non- profit sector. Outside of a lovely little kids theatre program in elementary/ middle school my dd found all her opportunities to really excel herself at minimal cost to us. I get what you’re saying and don’t disagree that holistic admission favors kids with broad opportunities, but a creative kid can also create those opportunities for themselves and this helps gives them the story that is actually the “ secret sauce@ I think you’re talking about[/quote]
