[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To those who recommend cutting back on sports to focus on GPA, don't kids need involvement with extracurriculars too? Our DS is in private in 9th, and the workload is intense. I can see the attraction to cutting back on sports, but would that just leave him with a higher GPA and not the other things he needs?[/quote] We never did sports and if hasn’t impacted our admissions yet. D had been accepted to multiple honors programs. GPA and SAT are more important. Colleges aren’t going to care enough whether your D was on a very casual sports team or one that requires a lot of practice.[/quote] But a lot of top privates in DC require sports participation, so out of our control![/quote]
