[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is there 3 pages on this. Basis doesn’t have a comprehensive or robust drama. If your kid wants this at their school, then Basis isn’t the school for them. THE END.[/quote] Why is this thread, OP and anybody who posted on it? BASIS obviously doesn't have comprehensive or robust ECs period. If your family prioritizes those t hings at school, then BASIS isn't the school for you. Nobody in charge at BASIS, along with most of families there, gives a hoot about serious drama, or music, or art or sports at school since Ivy League and MIT admissions are possible without them. THE END.[/quote] Sorry but above is not true. Kids taking a dozen AP courses are a dime a dozen, You need more with EC or stand out sports and even that is not enough. Legacy on top of that helps. Now if you are a sport superstar or URM with great grades then that might be the exception. Don’t kid yourself that AP’ s are enough. It’s not. [/quote] There are about 4 million HS grads a year. About 30,000, or less than 1 percent, took more than 12 APs over the 2021-2024 period (source: https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/number-of-ap-exams-per-student-2024.pdf) It's not insanely rare, but I wouldn't call it "a dime a dozen."[/quote] NP they are a dime a dozen when applying to top universities. And you compete with international students as well.[/quote]
