[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What AOs keep saying, but no one wants to hear, is that they aren't ranking the students and taking the "best" by any metric. They are filling departments and filling the sports teams and the bands and they cannot and don't care about assigning some precise "quality score" to each student. The AOs care about their class. They don't care about any of your specific kids. You can't game it by min-maxing your efforts to fit their metrics, because they don't have metrics. You can only game it by being different among equivalent options (bassoon not violin) and cheating to boost your scores and lying or uying fake achievements. [/quote] Or working hard and earning some standout honors or generating an interesting narrative between essays and ECs. It's not just cheating or instrument choice, though choice of activities can really help make a student stand out.[/quote]
