[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was surprised at how much weight essays and EC's played in the process. Did anyone have any huge surprises in admits or rejects so far? [/quote] How do you know essays and ECs played an unusually important role? Did people in admissions offices tell you this? [/quote] Just anecdotal - for example my kid got into a top 20 schools with grades and scores in the bottom quarter. She has no hooks - so the only thing that makes sense is would be the importance of essays and EC's. [/quote] You’re really not being useful with the thread…unless you can point to something specific, none of this is helpful. You continue to fish for something.[/quote]
