My autistic son from MCPS had a near-perfect GPA and test scores with APs in the Humanities, but could not manage extra-curricular activities beyond a little dog-walking that he enjoyed doing. So not only was there no alignment, there weren't any ECs of significance. He wanted an International Affairs major, and was rejected from Georgetown SFS, accepted with merit at GWU Elliott, got into UMD Honors, W&M dual degree programme with St Andrews, and others of that caliber. McGill was his safety, since it admits only on scores, but he didn't want that much winter.

My second child is in high school and has her preferred activities, none of which have anything to do with the major she will probably choose, since she doesn't want to be a professional musician or equestrian! To make matters worse, she has no idea what she wants to major in!!! She's good at everything. I have no idea where she will end up.

Have her do 1 thing with a generic group or leadership and apply sociology, or similar? Does she have equestrian and music awards? If so, include those, and she will do really WELL. [/quote]
