Just trying to understand what’s really possible. Our school’s SCOIR data includes students from many years ago.
How about this, tell us your kid's stats and we will tell you if it is possible.
+1. Much faster. Give us your kid's stats as well as what state they are in and what type of school they are attending (public, independent, parochial). We will chance them.
Ok
4.0 UW / 4.7 W
1560 SAT (one time , no superscore)
5s on AP exams taken so far
12 APs , plus 2 years post BC Calc math (multi var calc and DifEq / linear Alg)
4 years varsity in one sport (but not recruited)
National qualifier in an academic Ec
Exceptional ECs in 2 areas w lots of initiative/ leadership and service
M or F
Interested in STEM or nonSTEM
The stats are high enough…no college cares about a 1600 vs a 1560.
If M and non-STEM, competitive at any school.
There is no such thing as Exceptional ECs…there are “real” ECs like competitive debate and BS ECs like Honor Society. Tons that are in between at which a kid can do exceptional things even though the EC is nothing unusual.
Female
Real ECs - like debate , robotics , service, research, sports
Has diverse interests - could be STEM plus something non-STEM

4.66 with 12 or 13 APs. LCPS.
No. Submitted 1420 SAT.
No real hook. But Virginia resident. Admitted to UVA.
Applied EA, I think. She applied to Brown ED and was initially deferred and then ultimately rejected. (Which I was secretly happy about).
Lol being from VA is a major hook for UVA. Duh.

DS didn't apply in last year but fairly recent. Stats perfect. High test scores, both leadership and follower ship whatever was required , dedicated activities with good performance. Did EA at an ivy, didn't ED anywhere. Got into 4/10 T25, he applied to but not where he did EA.
Niece did this year, similar resume, actually even more competitive and more awards , didn't get into any T25, even not her EA.
Its a crap shot. I say do ED, don't waste your shot on EA, unless you are under or overprivileged, doesn't work for middle class.

agree, major and gender matters.
White, cisgender male interested in CS? Those stats may not be enough.
