[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was the person who said my kid would be screwed. Appreciate the good stories. It really is her most significant thing. Because if riding, she doesn’t really have time for school sports and lots of clubs. I guess she is a bit one dimensional but I think kids with deep interests can seem that way.[/quote] I will say this, as a PP with an equestrian DD, have her at least get involved in some school activities too. Mine played on the schools tennis team and yeah that made for a tough balancing act for a few months but added the team and leadership dimension that her riding did not. She still competed at a high level and also really enjoyed being with a group of girls playing for her high school. She didn’t write about tennis in her essays either but did list it and her awards. Definitely rounded out her application.[/quote]
