[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dd has very good stats (top 5% and 1570 SAT). She does writing, art and also has decent research, presidential volunteer gold. She has good awards in writing and scholastic art awards. She will probably apply for a dual major (English and Stem). How do such kids fare in admissions at top 20 schools. [/quote]

Some of these are clearly made up - there aren't enough hours in a week along with school, commute and homework. [/quote]

You might think that but not really. Esp if no sports. My DC had a profile like this and was admitted at 80% of T20 reaches.[/quote]
Most people are admitted to at most one of their T20 reaches, not 80%. Your child is remarkable. Many less extraordinary children get into T20s each and every year. [/quote]
