[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who says it is easier clearly has never had their kid apply to Oxbridge. I have two kids in the UK. One at Oxford and one at LSE. They both applied to Oxford. Kid 1: 8 AP’s at 5. 1570 SAT 3.9/4.0 UW GPA (top 10% of his class), great interview and did well on the TSA. Kid 2 had 10 AP’s at 5. 1600 on SAT/36 on ACT. Valedictorian, 4/4 UW GPA. National debate awards, amazing interviewer. Also crushed the TSA. Kid 1 got in Oxford. Kid 2 didnt. [/quote] For which major did each apply? How do you know 2 was an amazing interviewer? Did kid 2 have any APs below 5?[/quote] I said it in the 21:05 post…..same major. Again, as the post said, Kid 2 had 10 APs at 5. Kid 2 was (as an honest parent) an all around more qualified candidate in every metric. Amazing debater and excellent public speaker. It had to have been the interview, but Kid 2 came out of the interview telling us it was great. [/quote]
