[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly if she doesn’t already have some interests by now, she’s probably already hampered her chances of getting into an Ivy. Those chances are vanishingly small even for the best of the best academic students who excel in sports and have a lengthy and impressive EC resume packed with leadership.

Is Ivy her goal, or yours?[/quote]

Not her goal but of possible interest. She’s not set on Ivies by any means. Could also be interested in SLACs.

She has interests but none that have emerged as a passion, unless it’s being a good and thoughtful friend. She’s the one all her friends turn to when they’re down, stressed, needing a hug. Too bad that’s not something that can be listed as an EC.

Would really appreciate experiences with college counselors rather than people posting to let me know that my poor 15-year-old DD has already messed up her chances for top colleges.

Do all top colleges care about EC? Why not just great grades, good at learning and being a kind person?

What does she want to major in college?
