[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I assume we all agree that a low GPA and low SAT/ACT score would likely prevent a kid from going to a good university. However, are there other more subtle problems that are 'the kiss of death' for students? For example: taking a language for the first time as a freshman in high school? Not taking any AP classes throughout high school? No sport or significant extracurricular activities? What do you think is the *most* damaging to have (or not have) when applying. FWIW I have 3 elementary school kids and am trying to understand the college admissions process more clearly. [/quote] In my experience, one C will kill VT. Even if it is in ninth grade. [/quote]
