[quote=Anonymous]My niece is at Harvard, unhooked. She is an all around great kid - perfect SATs and GPA (was valedictorian along with 10 others from her large public HS in San Fran area), lots of clubs and activities, including founder of one and leadership in a few, and is a terrific writer. However, that describes many kids. My sister would say her daughter "won the lottery," although she did also get into Duke, Cornell, and Northwestern so there is something more "there" beyond the baseline stats than randomness. Along those lines, there is a kid in my DD's mcps graduating class who got into Harvard, Duke, Stanford, etc. He is a star but others in the class were, too, who didn't so again there must have been something that multiple AO's at elite colleges could see.[/quote]
