[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everything on that list. Did it all snd more. Especially the narrative - but crafted it after the fact or into junior year. - t10 & Ivy[/quote] My kids are at T10 and Ivy (RD- no hooks) and I did none of it…other than drive to the activities they wanted to do —mostly travel sports. They just did what they liked and a story revealed itself by end of junior year—u could see their likes and personality thru the things they chose themselves to do. I never looked at canvas in HS or any of that. They had all As and when they needed help they went to teacher office hours. There HS prides itself on making kids fully self sufficient from the first day they arrive on campus. They were always motivated to do well in school. I did essay edit/brainstorm with them and reviewed their common app for errors/typos. We didn’t get outside help. We weren’t aiming for T10/Ivies. They ended up there but this wasn’t done long time goal/dream. When I see those college counselor talk people and services on Instagram I cringe. [/quote]
