[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just can't wade through the toooooooo looooooong post above but if this is the school your DC wants...communicated it now to the school.

They obviously see that this student is overqualified and will be enrolling elsewhere even if given a spot so they offer the spot to a student that is more likely to attend.[/quote] Apparently much more qualified than our accepted 1580 child, NMSF with multiple international awards, etc. Of course it makes PP feel better thinking that it’s yield protection but there are also so many qualified and talented students that there is just not enough space for all of them. It also doesn’t help that we are not of the preferred race and income level. [/quote]

Curious for an example of an international award (of any recognition).[/quote] First place at the international tournament.[/quote]

What tournament?  Trying to understand an example of an international HS tournament.[/quote] There are plenty of them. One example is robotics championship:

OK...got it.  I guess I was thinking of individual international awards, like winning an international chess tournament or an international piano contest (or the Olympics, which of course is the epitome of an international competition).  Basically, things where there are probably no more than 5-10 kids (if that) total in the world in any applying college class.

Funny as I am familiar with FRC robotics which stops at the national level (though Canada participates in the National contest).[/quote]
