[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Courseload, GPA relative to the high school, Scores(SAT and APs), and LOR from teachers are more important than awards. We know someone who had an 8 and some 3s on the above list, shut out of all T20s. Top10%, great but not max course difficulty, 1510, got Echols at UVA. Kid with a 7 on this list and two 4s and a 3, max rigor possible and valedictorian and 1570, also Echols: into multiple T10s . Both unhooked. The difference was relative rigor and rank and scores. National level awards will not make up for an outstanding but not off the charts academic resume. [/quote] I think it depends on the HS? We've seen national awards might help get your kid into a T25 (without max rigor but top 10% etc).....agree not for T10 without the max rigor.[/quote]
