[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A child of a colleague (asian female) applied only to ivies and Stanford against the advice of her parents and college counselor at her private. She was a great student but got shut out. Took a gap year. Ended up at Cornell the year after. Her parents were furious she did not apply to more schools but she wanted Ivy and was very headstrong (possibly somewhere on the spectrum?). Did research at NIH during happy year, obviously through a connection, and retook her SATs to improve from something like a 1560 to 1600. [/quote] Are there colleges that would care about that difference in SATs? I kind of assumed that once you're above 1500 the other aspects of your application are what make you stand out[/quote]
