[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was going to say his stats don’t seem that great compared to other superstar Indian students but colleges will supposedly be race blind. If he is not top 10% of his school, I would not bother with Caltech. I know kids who are literally top of their class getting rejected and not expecting to get accepted.[/quote] Caltech and other similar colleges are lottery for everyone (high stats or not). We cant discourage everyone from applying. Someone has to appl .to these colleges and this kids stats are right in the mix But I agree that expectations should be managed. OP's kid doesn't seem to have typical Indian kid profile so maybe that will help. Plus coming from a private school (especially if it's a feeder may also help). [/quote]
