[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP- your kid really needs to have a genuine love of learning and that needs to come across in the application, in addition to high stats, good ECs, good recs and strong essays. Interest in sports, sneakers and girls is just not enough, sorry. Is he bringing anything special to the campus community. If not, the odds are low. [b]If your kid is very smart but not intellectually curious, the admission committees see that IMO.[/b] [/quote] I believe this and struggle with it. My kid is very bright but lack curiosity. I don't get it, but there is only so much I can do about it. He is provided every possible opportunity; every interest is nurtured, has access to everything. Just doesn't care.[/quote]
