[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gymnastics captain AND Lead Cheerleader AND Math team captain AND Debate co-captain AND Faculty award for top student in HS In at two of HYP[/quote] Other than being good at becoming captain, I don’t see anything stand out in this resume. Where is the impact? How many times AIME qualified?[/quote] DP. [b]It demonstrates a remarkably diverse skill set. I can’t imagine that schools see that combo very often.[/b][/quote] That is the point I was trying to make. So much focus on "passion" and "pointy", but plenty of well rounded kids end up at HYPSM. She did not make it to AIME and is not the strongest math student actually. My kid was in the same grade as her and went to same school for 9th grade before transferring to another HS. My kid also ended up at one of HYPSM and recently got a look at the admissions file. Academic rating was 1 and that was got DC in. [/quote]
