[quote=Anonymous]DD got into Rice last year even though her standardized testing stats were significantly below the school's average. DD put her heart and soul into her essays, and got very creative with Rice's extra supplement. The admissions officer also mentioned that the school was looking to add some geographic diversity, and that they only had one student from DC at the time. I guess some combination of those things worked in her favor. Like PP said, it shows that kids shouldn't be afraid to apply just because they think they can't get in![/quote]
