[quote=Anonymous]At this point your kid can spend a lot of mental energy and time trying to make excuses or your kid can try to sell himself. I would advocate the latter. If your kid does not meet some grade cut off, an essay is not going to help (what's the essay going to say: "I am really smart, but I am not quite as smart or hardworking as the really accomplished kids"? ). Personally, I think it would be better for your kid to talk about his interests, strengths, and accomplishments. As for school selection, I would apply widely and warn you against assuming a school is "safe". I know kids with much higher stats that were rejected from V-tech engineering. [/quote]
