[quote=Anonymous]Holistic can ALSO mean looking beyond GPA perfection - if stellar scores, essays and recommendations and ECs suggest that a kid is really special and smart with lots of untapped potential, the school may take a risk here and there on a wild card applicant. All perfect scores and grades does not automatically make for an interesting applicant - that is my read at least on the "holistic" approach. A holistic approach makes no excuses for looking at the total package in each kid as it relates to the class as a whole.[/quote]
