[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid is panicking because “everyone” is applying and the application is due tomorrow and they did not ask for teacher recs or download the application yet or anything. I don’t believe there’s any requirement at our HS beyond GPA and paying a hefty fee. My child has the GPA (4.0 unweighted, something like 4.6 weighted? as a junior in a magnet program) but I’m trying to convince them that their transcript and other parts of their “resume” will speak for themselves. They do not have a lot of other ECs (a varsity sport, very part time job), but as an excellent student who’s aiming for probably T40-75 schools, they don’t need to play the silly NHS game, do they?[/quote] Kind of view NHS as listing "Honor Roll" as an award. Schools see the grades. They know what's been accomplished academically. [/quote]
