[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At bare minimum, in high school: four years of the same foreign language; math up to & including calculus; and biology, chemistry & physics. [/quote] This, so you will need Algebra I in 7th grade. The other important factor, is developing strong writing skills. Most kids are going to have very similar grades (grade inflation) and test scores. Separation will come in the essay portion of the application. Develop writing skills that can tell a story succinctly while still engaging the reader. Look at the schools common data set to see what is most important to that school and meet those requirements. Focus on extra curriculars that the child enjoys and can speak to with passion. [/quote]
