[quote=Anonymous] For the record, I like most interviewers have almost no input in the actual admission process. I mostly do interviews so I can keep track of what kids these days are up to and selfishly use it to my kids advantage. But for extracurriculars it is clear that kids who have national-level accomplishments are the ones that have an advantage. There's too many kids who have a smattering of club participation, some school-level leadership, and some varsity sports under their belt for those types of extracurriculars to make a difference - you just have to do some to show you are a rounded applicant, then also be very good at one extracurricular. Oh, and of course, you need to be a stellar student. That's just the baseline. [/quote] Thanks, very clear. And very helpful[/quote]
