How is that relevant to anything. Or are you suggesting maybe she's Asian, who have a huge advantage in these Ivy League admissions?
Um, no. You've got it backwards.

Did she talk about chemistry in her application? Where/how? Did she talk about what she wants to be when she grows up?
What state are you from?
What was her essay about?
Is she very intellectually curious? Did her recommendation discuss this?
Class rank?

File a request to review the application and then your DD will know exactly why. No speculation needed.

Tons of kids here take APs. Very few have 5s on all tests.
+1
And you are paying half the sticker price, so they didn’t have to offer $$ money to get her.

I’m curious to know what you think got her in because we know so many kids with better stats and other stuff that flat out got rejected.
Why do the cray crays come on her and do this? Just insane. We aren’t admission counselors.
