[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]There is nothing wrong with the kid. He’s just competing for spots against the other extremely well-qualified kids from his own HS. This isn’t rocket science, people. [/quote] Other than a lower gpa, I can't imagine how many other kids are better than this kid. [/quote] He attends a high-performing high school, ranked #1 in the SF area, so many of the kids will very competitive. Enough to grab acceptances. If he’s 10% rank out of 460 kids, there are 45 kids with better GPAs. And the vast majority of those will have impressive applications as well. Potentially better essays and recommendations as well. Top colleges aren’t typically accepting 40-50 kids from one high school. [/quote]
