[quote=Anonymous]I see what you mean, OP, and as an extreme introvert I often resent the apparent emphasis on public-facing accomplishments—"leadership" or whatever. However, my experience both as a college prof and as a parent suggests that teachers and counsellors know and value the introverted kids far more than might be apparent from the parents'-end view of the process. I have two extremely introverted kids who both got into very highly-ranked SLACs. One is a practically perfect student and the other a little less so, but both were clearly loved and valued by their high school teachers and they've thrived at their SLACs. And from what I've seen on the admissions end, the word gets through.[/quote]
