[quote=Anonymous]Having just gone through this with my DC, I can only tell everyone fretting to tell their kid to spend a lot of time writing sincere and unique essays. The test score is a hurdle only; I was skeptical of this but I now believe it. Same with GPA. What matters is truly standing out. Another 20 points on the SAT or one more AP won't matter if you're over the bar; at that point it really is the uniqueness, sincerity, and writing of the kid. For parents tempted to interfere... I can only say that it will hurt. Let your kid write whatever crazy stuff they want. Remember, they're 17.[/quote]
