[quote=Anonymous]You know the answer to this question. Great stats are a prerequisite to get admitted to these schools, but they are not enough especially for an unhooked kid. She should by all means apply, and it sounds like she we will have a strong application on the quantitative side, but for the competitive schoolS she really needs to think beyond that as far as what will make her stand out. As others have said I would also really question her desire to go to HYP above all things as the schools are very different. My kid is it one of the schools, and I’m no expert on the process but only have her experience to go by so take that for what it’s worth. She really spent long time thinking about why her dream school was a good fit for her and kept that in mind as she worked in her application. She wouldn’t have been a good fit at the other two schools, even if she had gotten in. Rather than just focusing on the obvious prestige of the HYP thing I hope your daughter can identify what aspects of whichever school she’s most want to appeal to her because there are certainly plenty of other fantastic schools that are highly selective probably offer many of the similar benefits.[/quote]
