[quote=Anonymous]I dont know the stats, but one person I knew, their child had amazing achievements. High stats, two research papers published, captain of two clubs, some outstanding volunteer awards, and a lot more. I honestly thought the kid would get into most of T10. Very involved parent and am pretty sure doing a lot of the legwork at least. She seemed to know inside out of every top college requirements and I felt it would be a utter waste of time to even try for T10 if that is the level of competition because my son had nowhere near what her child accomplished. To my shock her son got waitlisted and then rejected to every one of T20. It was really unfair given what the child has done in HS. My son got one T20 acceptance much to my surprise. My son's application were a bit raw and I did not bother to provide a lot of feedback because it seemed like such a long shot and waste of time. [/quote]
