[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here once again. My mind is blown that a 99.9th percentile ACT, NMSF, 10+ APs with mostly 5s, and a nearly perfect GPA are a dime a dozen and not something that would interest T20 schools. I guess you learn something every day. [/quote] My friend's son sounds very similar to yours, including being from a Western state (not CA). He didn't get into any of the T20 schools he applied to. In retrospect, I'd guess, as others have said here that his app didn't tell a compelling story about his varied interests. He ended up going to the Barrett Honors College at Arizona State with a large scholarship. He had great research opportunities there, played in the marching band, had fun. And is now pursuing his PhD at one of the top universities in the world for his field. So, add Barrett to your list https://barretthonors.asu.edu/[/quote]
