[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shut out of top, but fallback was UT-Austin in state auto admit. They were good only bc they had a strong safety. person 1 - 1600 SAT, rank 1 out of 600+, rejected all ivies, lots of AP, stanford, michigan, duke, chicago, northwestern, varsity sport person 2 - 1580 SAT, top 5%, lots of AP, varsity sport, rejected UVA, UNC, Duke. Have a good safety! [/quote] Should have mentioned - both were rejected everywhere but their safety [/quote] same for my high stats magnet kid. It was rough.[/quote] I always told my high stat magnet kid - be a MIT worthy kid who goes to UMD. And that's what happened. Did he apply to MIT? Heck, yes!! Harvard? Never. UMD - Absolutely!! Was it rough? Not at all. The money that UMD gave him and the money he saved by not going to MIT helped him to invest in the stock market. He is already ahead. [/quote]
