[quote=Anonymous]HS class of 1992, got into UVA, Cornell and Duke as an international student. Don't remember the GPA, but was straight A student. Took only 3 APs (English, BC Calc and Stats). 1250 SAT (730 Math, 520 Verbal) w perfect TOEFL score though, NO EC, just a part time job at the library during junior & senior year. DD, this cycle, also got into UVA, but shut out of all Ivies. 4.5W / 34 ACT / Athlete / Musician in leadership seats / Student government in leadership position / Essays vetted by counselor. By today's standards, I don't think I would've gotten into any of the VA schools with my old stats, let alone Cornell and Duke. I probably would be doing 2 years of CC and then tried to transfer.[/quote]
