[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the flailing around trying to get students’ profiles to be razor sharp is for a tiny % of the colleges in the country. The vast majority—including some schools everybody has heard of—would be just fine with a kid taking 2 APs senior year. [/quote]

Please name a few of these colleges.  I don't know of any that my junior is considering that would be OK with what you describe.[/quote]

Ole Miss.  Univ of Arkansas. ODU.  Basically any school with higher than an 80% acceptance rate. [/quote]

You don’t have to go down South.  There are plenty of schools without rigid requirements like 4 APs not 2 APs.    I think a reason some of these kids with high stats are being rejected, even at public schools, is because there are far more interesting candidates.   If everyone has the same APs, same GPA, same SATs then they need to get more into what kind of person is the applicant.

I don’t know but maybe they can see right through the applications where the parents orchestrated their child’s whole life and the child went along with it.   [/quote]
