[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Terp is graduating this year. Academically when [b]she[/b] applied in 2022, she was likely bottom 25% of the accepted class. Her HS grades were good but could have been better and she took mostly honors rather than AP. But, she offered a tremendous background in leadership and community service. When she was accepted and many peers with better academic credentials were not, it occurred to me - big schools need students who will be involved in campus, too. So an applicant like my Terp was probably appealing for that reason. And she has been very active these past 4 years and contributed in lots of ways to the UMD community. So in our experience, ECs can make a difference if they stand out enough. [/quote] Females have a better chance in STEM mainly because there are still few females. [/quote]
