I know a number of super-high-stats kids who were nominated candidates and put in for it, but didn't get it in the end. I think they're looking for really exceptional, at least national-level, ECs. If your DC doesn't have those (mind didn't) it's really not worth the time for the application. But you could leave it up to your kid to decide.

He would easily score 1600 in one sitting, without prep, while taking a nap. Just ask him.

This country voted to make America great. We don't need any "scholars" or research money or science or support of education or higher education. None of that stuff has anything to do with America being great apparently.

'Scholarships' is just a trip to DC.
