[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My question to OP and others posters who have kids with similar profile and stats, when did your kids ‘start’ the college admissions journey? In elementary school? Did they play on travel teams? Get enrichment outside of school? It just seems like a lot of work for a really long time.. just wondering [/quote] It is not going to work if it is "college admissions journey". These are motivated bright people that choose to spend their time on academic and other enriching pursuits. Then they package that up into applications. I don't think you can just decide to be interested in science research, or piano, or ballet, or base ball and be really good at it. These applicants follow natural interests or talents for years because they are natural interests and talents.[/quote] You are so misguided. Absolutely parents plan the journey. What sports to play and which activities to do. It is a 100% planned! [/quote]
