[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They have a high school senior with a strong GPA but completely mediocre SAT (not a national merit semifinalist) and no hooks. Nothing interesting about her at all. They think she's going to get into Harvard because she has almost all A's at her mediocre school. They're so clueless but I didn't want to be the pessimistic in-law from the big city.[/quote] If they ask for it, absolutely give it to them. If not then let them deal with it. A lot of parents see the sun shining out of all their kids bottoms and sometimes need a wake-up call. Not getting into the IVY league schools could be that wake-up.[/quote] More than likely they'll claim all the spots were stolen by illegal immigrants and other minority applicants.[/quote]
