[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My (recruited athlete) son’s freshman roommate was a UMC Asian guy who was brilliant at math and had won state and maybe national competitions. He was also really funny and laid back—I imagine his application conveyed his personality well. There was a guy on their hall who was a white kid from Oregon, not first gen, whose primary EC was working as an assistant at the local morgue.[/quote] I'd think the math competitions, if they are prestigious ones (or the state is CA or NY and they're huge competitions) is a hook in and of itself. I know a kid with this profile that got into both Stanford and Harvard. [/quote]
