[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Dartmouth AO podcast from this week with the Brown AO is super interesting. Note - my kid applied to neither school, but helpful to understand their mindset.[/quote] They address why so many international students or immigrant parents might be frustrated because there is no equation to get in. Worth the listen. Especially the end "merit [and they mean what they value your application for] lives in places you don't always expect"..... think it's what everyone here has been saying for a while - it's not the fancy stuff that gets you in. It's the kid who writes a letter to an elder every day for all 4 years of HS (and his teachers know about it;) it's the kid theater kid who was bullied in middle school, who started a costume club for younger kids; its the kid who goes to a private school but is a car mechanic after school. So many great stories. [/quote]
