[quote=Anonymous]This is the kind of kid for whom "demonstrated interest" is key. Colleges are going less for on-paper achievements, and more for interesting and interested students. Get to know the admissions officer for your region. Attend any fairs at which top picks will be present. Sign up for applicant webinars, then GO, and ask questions. I hear you that it seems phony to your kid to chase status points (and I agree!) so he should identify a few places he would genuinely like to go, and focus on them. Schools keep track of who is engaged, and those kids have an edge. [/quote]
