[quote=Anonymous]My kid got a letter from AO at school with < 3.5% acceptance rate. Apparently it was their character, achievements and potential. That’s all I “know.” My best guess — character was from a service project, LOR and essays; achievements was national/international awards in competitions. Potential was probably LOR and essays. FWIW, my kid cannot write essays that read like novels, but they wrote about how they see themselves contributing at the intersection of their interests — something that will be important to all of us in the years to come. And their story was certainly unique.[/quote]
