[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks so much!

As a native DC person who isn't in the area anymore, I find these answers fascinating. I am grateful for the help, but also think:

1) it's interesting some people interpreted it as "only" about looking good and/or having bombed high school so she could get in somewhere better. 
2) I see now I wasn't specifying the "why," but I was thinking more "she will do a gap year for her personal development (which I wish people thought the colleges would like - it doesn't reflect well on colleges that they wouldn't - but whatever) and why not get an advantage in admissions out of it?"[/quote]

Glad it helped OP.
Yes, improving your word selection and communication skills when you post will help get you better answers.[/quote]

People can be kind of mean on this site. Point taken, but I was asking in an open-ended way that shows that I have a different set up assumptions - that was my point. Not everywhere is DC but I get this is a DC site.[/quote]
