[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those are actually pretty good ECs especially considering those academic stats.
Harvard Yale Princeton Stanford are just ridiculous for anyone without some hook but I think any of the other top schools you’d have a realistic shot.  Pick the favorite and ED, then expect to submit widely as reaches with some targets that they’d feel comfortable with.
This really is a strong application — don’t let people get you down.  Being a 4 year varsity athlete while getting those grades/scores in those classes is not all that common actually.  [/quote]

Agree. OP, your kid should apply to the schools that appeal to him, ensuring that he has at least a couple likelies that he’d be happy to attend.

And of course as others have said, this is about HS context. At our public HS, kids like this are applying to and often getting admitted to the most selective schools. But also as others have said, not all of them want those schools, so many are happily attending state schools.[/quote]
