[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know everyone here has kids with unweighted 4.0s but where do the smart but non-4.0 kids go? The ones with ECs that are good but not great (rec sports their whole life but no travel), good ECs but not great (volunteer at org their whole life but ever started one), etc? Kid is a rising soph so we're not fully in this world yet.[/quote] I don’t think admissions cares if you played rec sports or pay to play travel games. The top 1% of high school athletes are recruited. Volunteering at an organization that long is remarkable. Admissions know when a parent started one so don’t worry. They go to many differently colleges including the ones that the “top” stats go to. Mine is an A/B student below 4.0 and I’m not worried at all. They will have a lot of options. I feel bad for the kids who did all AP classes with top scores and didn’t get in to the schools they were hoping for. [/quote]
