[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meh. Any college admissions officer would say that the kid who stands out at elite colleges is the one who took AP Chem while at the same time taking doing the independent music thing. [/quote] If you want ivy level, this. All the hardest courses, grades at or near top of class, and the arts with leadership plus leadership in a longterm activity and throw in at least a state level honor. Mine had that and a bit more plus the almost perfect scores across the board and got into multiple t10/ivy schools. They stood out at their high school; almost all unhooked kids at the ivy they picked had similar resumes and a few are even more impressive. Most hooked kids are slightly less stellar but someone has to be the bottom group of the curve especially in Stem— hooked kids help the unhooked standout once there. [/quote]
