[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was in HS my good friend, who very high achieving and everyone expected to to go Yale or Harvard, was in the AP highest Math, Science, Language, History and English classes and getting A grades in all of those plus winning awards for her art work, and living with her sister and Dad who had won custody from the drunk mother. The only place that accepted her was her safety, Boston University. Everywhere else rejected her, not even a WL. I don't know what went wrong for her, but if she had not had that one safety she would have been forced to take a gap year and reapply. [/quote] And the system has only gotten worse. I'm surprised that doesn't happen to more kids. These days you can't even be certain of safeties.[/quote]
