[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Non-DMV selective private: --Top 10% or high stats + hook: HYP+ Columbia + Penn (Wharton), Duke --High stats, missing national level ECs or hook: Northwestern, Brown, Penn, Dartmouth, Williams —national ECs (stats irrelevant): Stanford; (and sometimes) Duke --High stats + normal ECs OR some flaw on their record (like a bad grade or two) and hook - Cornell, Chicago, Rice, Vanderbilt, Amherst, Georgetown --Mid stats + no hook - Michigan; UCLA; Cal; WashU; Emory [/quote] I think this one is mine. Sounds right. Midwest selective private. Accurate(ish) for my kid. High GPA, national level ECs/hook (tier 1 EC), top LOR (best of my career) for primary subject but test optional/niche humanities major: - admitted to a school in the 2nd row, - WL in the third row, - admitted to one school in the fourth row/WL at another, and - admitted to two schools in the last row.
