[quote=Anonymous]Were APs and honor classes available at his school and he elected to not take them (in general)? His good SAT and the business will be pluses for him, but if you think this will make him stand out above all others, try to be realistic. It MAY matter, but it may not. (Your son had a lot more time to do these things because he wasn't loaded up with harder classes.) I'm not downplaying what he has done, but I also don't think you should think this will guarantee him a spot. My own child has done something very unique and admissions counselor at highly selective university said that if it is not highlighted very clearly in the application, it WILL be easily overlooked but that if it is not overlooked, it could absolutely make the difference between admittance or denial.
