[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the OP’s child sounds very one-dimensional and really needs to get out there and do something to show that they care about others and the broader community. Without that, they are not going to get accepted into a top college. [/quote] This...also [b]admissions officers want to see that a student can handle multiple activities AND maintain good grades[/b]. Any smart kid can get good grades and prep for SAT if they are only focusing on that.[/quote] This is so true. Kids who spend all day in school and then do more academic activities after school are less impressive than kids who do totally different, non-academic activities after school. It’s just a fact of life. [/quote] Depends on the kid, but it says a lot about you that you consider this a "fact of life" lol.[/quote]
