[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In at Harvard! Strong student all around (GPA 3.9, SAT 1510), particularly accomplished in 2 areas. Teachers told us they wrote that he is one of the most passionate they’ve seen in entire teaching career. If I had to guess, the teacher recommendations were what put him over the top. Feeling so grateful and incredibly lucky![/quote] Congratulations! I have a kid who was just admitted to the top two US boarding schools (not a Harvard level accomplishment but as good as it gets at his age). An influential teacher wrote the same thing in a rec: "best kid in my 20 year career". That wording seems to hold a lot of weight with admissions committees. Much of it is the luck of the draw---is your child given an opportunity to show a teacher just how awesome they are? The stars aligned just right and my child was able to shine with this teacher in a unique way. I doubt it will happen again for him when college comes around. [/quote]
