[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD got flat rejected. I expected a deferral, frankly. 4.0 UW all advanced/AP classes at NJ public. 1550 and 35 (one and done on both), all 5s on APs. Strong but not exceptional XCs and essays. Oh well. Their loss. [/quote] Sorry this happened. I don’t think that “one and done” matters at all for schools that allow superscore. All 5s don’t matter that much either at schools that are more holistic in review. It’s the exceptional ECs, essays, and recommendation letters that can actually help an applicant’s chances. It’s tough to stand out academically when so many applicants have similar stats. Differentiating yourself is really important at these highly rejective schools. [/quote]
