[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You people crapping on the OP are off base IMO.  Let’s be honest; this kid had top 1% GPA, top 1% SAT scores and all the rest of the package.  Schools like Perdue and CU aren’t swimming in kids like this.  It’s completely reasonable to be upset that someone with a resume like this isn’t being immediately accepted into the schools mentioned.[/quote]

OP didn't mention any extracurriculars. Maybe her child is a terrible writer and the essays were bad. Maybe her child is not a nice person and the recommendations were terrible. Who knows?[/quote]

“Attends specialized engineering courses through CC and Magnet program 
Eagle Scout with lots of leadership positions and projects through the scouting program 
Lots of EC focused on computer science that he does because he loves them and does totally on his own (has website blog with details of all projects that is very well written) 
Community service since 9th grade (even through covid) at same organization - has many hours ”

No ECs?[/quote]
