[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just a side note, my two kids who had applied (and accepted to all the programs), I find their essays to be almost comical.  The things they wrote about was quite innocent and immature.  No fancy language.  If anything, a little whiny like most 13 year olds.  We certainly know kids who I would think are more qualified although I never asked about their scores so would not know for comparison purposes.  But it makes me wonder if admissions prefer to see a child tone, rather than something so well crafted and thought out.[/quote]

What were their grades/scores?[/quote]

Both are A students (but we were told most kids are A students in mcps) with lots of sports, music and too many non-academic random activities of their liking.  But they didn't win any awards or anything of sort.

My older one had extraordinarily high math scores.  It's been awhile so I don't recall - maybe around 310ish for math and 270's for reading.

My younger one, I think either upper 280's or lower 290's for math, and mid 250ish for reading.  He tells me kids always talk about scores at school and he never felt his scores were amazing compared to others.[/quote]
