[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well rounded kids are not flocking to the likes of Emory and WashU. Well rounded kids tend to play athletics or like athletics and it a non starter at those 2 nerdy schools. [/quote] That's not really a true statement. You find many kids who like athletics who aren't either well-rounded or pointy...they are just the kids that play a sport in HS, aren't recruitable, etc., but they don't participate in other activities. On my kid's baseball team, maybe 10% of the team does anything else as an EC (many play on the coach's club team in the Fall)...and that 10% are the ones that usually are headed/trying for a top academic school. Well-rounded means well-rounded...you participate in many things.[/quote]
