[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote][b]you don't need all that volunteer bs, the key is to get recruited for a sport. [/quote] pick a sport and rock out in it. [/b] I was in the 02 cycle and was a typical candidate i.e. "70th percentile" but unhooked, and got frozen out of top schools. my younger siblings ('08,'11,'14) candidates all got into top schools as recruited athletes because I figured out the secret after my experience. [/quote] As long as you have the grades, this is pretty much true. My DD does have some unique volunteer experience, awesome grades, and ok sat scores. She is recruited athlete and got in to her top choice, highly selective school. I doubt she would have gotten in otherwise.[/quote]
