[quote=Anonymous]This is OP again, thanks everyone who has posted. I’m thinking the sweet spot may be for a kid to enjoy high school - take some challenging classes but not overworked, and exert effort for the SAT (but not obsessively). Do a few ECs but be committed and do them well so as to have a focused “story” to present to schools so they they can picture DC there and what DC has to offer. DC applies to schools that are a good match and are cost effective/ sensible. DC does well in undergrad to distinguish herself somehow (research, leadership etc.), then puts it all out there to get into and thrive at the best grad school DC can afford. The goal is to peak in grad school and career, not in undergrad or high school. That’s where my money is. [/quote]
