[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was a poster on here a few years ago who had a kid who was rejected almost everywhere, despite having perfect stats and an absurdly impressive resume. I remember this kid claimed to have volunteer hours that worked out to something like 10 hours per week, every single week of high school (on top of a gazillion extracurriculars, etc). Clearly the universities didn't buy this. Remember, applications are read by humans who have the same hours in the week as the kids do and they were kids once too. Don't embellish. [/quote] This was my thought. I suspect they went to the trouble of confirming it because she probably had other ECs listed as well, and the math didn’t math. [/quote]
