[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Learned that unless your kid is a recruited athlete, their playing varsity all throughout high school and being named as captain for multiple seasons is not going to make a difference in any way from any other EC.[/quote] You learned that from DCUM, it's the DCUM conventional wisdom, but you still don't know that for a fact from admissions. In fact you don't know whether any kind of EC made a difference. It's all speculation. DS was not a recruited athlete but was varsity four years and team captain etc. and was accepted to a great school that rejected many of his classmates who were not varsity athletes, team captains etc. Was his varsity sport what made a difference? Maybe. Who knows. I can't say for sure that it didn't, despite the confidence of DCUM on this issue.[/quote]
