[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]URM and 1st gen...but I have a feeling you already knew that. [/quote] +2 Also, geography can be hook, especially if you live in a rural location. [/quote] This is a big I one I’ve seen work a lot recently. Despite all other things being equal from SES to stats, the kid from rural Alabama or Tennessee will get in to the highly selective school over the kid from Arlington. [/quote] This. At my kid’s highly selective school they said they have freshman from 49 states. My guess is if s mediocre kid applied from the 50th state, he’d have an excellent shot. [/quote] Yep. The challenge is to find the HS that will help educate to get top test scores and grades and enable kid to still get national this and that… just bring from tho 50th state without that won’t work, but after if check all the other boxes, better odds to be from 50th state than less bottom 50% at say TJ.[/quote]
