[quote=Anonymous]No test scores and the holistic approach to admissions. There are somethings your kid just can't control. He can't change is DNA, where he was born or his home situation. When admissions is controlling for that, it really doesn't matter how exceptional grades, test scores and extracurriculars, or even what a good person they are. The sooner your kid knows that admissions is not 'personal' (though looking for specific traits can really feel that way), the better the will be. Pick a wide variety of schools and don't let your kid get frustrated. Keep doing their best in life and working hard. That's gotta count for something eventually.[/quote]
