[quote=Anonymous]Son got into his reach last year. His grades were average, his SAT slightly above average. BUT... • he took very difficult classes; 7 AP classes, a mix of STEM and humanities • he took the same language for five years (including middle school); did a summer Governor's school for the same language • played the same instrument for 6 years • played a varsity sport for 4 years • had a very personal, unique and insightful essay He is not an URM. I'm not sure what it was that put him over the edge, but he's at the school now and we are all still sort of in awe.[/quote]
