[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD with GPA 4.52 (Junior year), 1580 SAT, all 5s in all her 8 APs from TJ with excellent ECs for CS, volunteering/community service and an internship did not get into any of the Ivies and waitlisted at CMU. Major - CS. Obviously we are disappointed. College admissions seems like a lottery. [/quote]
Wait so where is your kid going???? After that INSANE amount of work was it worth it? This is so depressing [/quote]

She did not do the work for getting into a top college. She did because it is what she is. [b]She wasn't even thinking about college until about the junior packet came up for the counselor[/b]. She's going to a good college for CS major.[/quote]

The parents of kids that get into the ivies are thinking for their kids starting in 8th grade.  They game the ECs, sports, instruments their kids play, schools their kids attend, etc. for the right outcome.

Don't worry.  Your kid will do well wherever she goes.  Have her study CS.  It's the big hustle now and will put her compensation on par with IB and other top professions.  [/quote]
