What am I missing?[/quote]

You are missing volunteer work: starting 1X week in KDG at BVR and advancing to 8 hours a week 10th& 11th grade. This is both because your parents also volunteer for several organizations and its just what is expected.

Lots of sports: from Pre-K parents will likely have had you playing ice hockey or soccer, minimum but also tennis and ballet plus an instrument.

Some time in HS you will be expected to score some impressive internship or academic fellowship. This is because your parents did the same as did their parents. This all leads up to interning on the Hill, clerking for SCOTUS while at Harvard Law, etc....

what else was left out: CIT job at camp in VT, Maine or NH and Summers at Squam[/quote]
