[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone's DC get in without national awards? [/quote] My son got in. Never participated in any national awards. No APs and no IB. He scored 1600 on the SAT in one seating and 36 on the ACT in one seating. ZERO ECs or National awards…[/quote] [b]Race?[/quote][/b] Why does it matter? A child who scores 1600 on the SAT in one seating is definitely a stellar student regardless of their race. [/quote] Institutional priorities of the tippy top schools include geographic diversity. MIT only accepts kids they know for certain can handle the academic rigor (high stats) but after that IP are considered. Everyone knows it’s harder to get into the T5. Probably T25 as well if your kid is from overrepresented areas with many highly qualified applicants - DMV, NYC, Bay Area etc. [/quote]
