[quote=Anonymous]My kid will end up with SATs in the mid to high 1400 range, maybe a 3.9 unweighted GPA with pretty good rigor (7 or 8 APs), and can probably get a couple decent but not amazing rec. He does a number of activities -- acting in several school productions each year, creative writing, volunteering over the summers, a couple of clubs. He has ADHD and he puts a lot of himself into these activities because he loves them, but honestly is not motivated enough to go for leadership positions or awards. He’s probably targeting LACs but not sure how competitive a kid like this is. He is smart and interesting but still immature in many ways. I’m interested in thoughts from parents of kids like this and how things have worked out for them.[/quote]
