[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]kid is saying they based out of sports, since friends with less score got in or at least wait listed by doing a sport[/quote]

I doubt this very much.  Sounds like some resentment there.[/quote]

it is not resentment, it is from a kid who does the best at everything and goes above and beyond, so when trying to see who got in with less scores vs who did not get in with good scores, the difference seemed to be being in a team sport, [/quote]

This is RMIB you are asking about yes? Does your kid have high math AND reading scores? Foreign language? I think they are looking for very well rounded kids. I also wonder if they get more female applicants and more language humanities focused applicants giving the male stem kids an edge.[/quote]

NP. I don't think it's helpful to ask these questions. You can agonize for hours about this stuff but there's often no obvious reason why someone was chosen and someone else was not. There are a lot of qualified kids with everything you asked and they still don't get in. It's not very scientific.
PP I'm sorry about your child and wish them success in whatever school they end up in! [/quote]
