[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just reading the Linkedin profiles of a few kids from area high schools who were accepted to Ivies this cycle and several set up national level projects in 8th grade. My 8th grader is not capable of complex web design, canvasing hundreds if not thousands of people, etc. There is zero way kids think of this on their own and then execute things. [/quote] Exactly! My smart middle school kid goes to sports 5x per week. He is very athletic. He hangs out with his friends and watches YouTube. He loves to ski, fish and is an excellent golfer. None of his hobbies are really solid for a college app. It would have been 30 years ago.[/quote] Business owner here. Tell him to keep up the golf. If he's good and he knows how to socialize, this will probably help him in the real world more than the college name on his resume![/quote] He is a great golfer for his age. He will be joining his high school golf team.[/quote]
