[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue is applying to business. You must have a tight narrative to get into the most competitive business school programs.

This kid does not have that and will not get in. But will likely [b]get in for other majors[/b]. This is where you need to be strategic.[/quote]
Like what?[/quote]

From OP (assuming intended majors business?)

ECs: 2 somewhat competitive but pay-to-play pre college programs related to the intended major (done purely because they were interested in the subjects). School orchestra. School newspaper. Varsity sports, but not recruited athlete. Independent research (but not with a university professor). president of a school club related to their intended major. short unpaid internship in their intended major.

I’d refocus the business/econ type of activities to be focused on organizational theory/behavior, organizational studies and sociology of organizations and how they work?

Apply:

EA:
Michigan LSA (Organizational Studies, Sociology, Econ); UVA; USC; UT; UNC; Richmond; W&M

ED: Northwestern LOC 
ED: Vanderbilt HOD
ED: Cornell ILR Org Studies
