The best advice I have for you is to make sure your child pursues something they really care about. For my kids it was sports. They were both good enough to be “recruited” which is a large boost for most of the top prep schools. Secondly, have your child become involved with some meaningful community service that shows they care about giving back to their community. I see this missing in MANY applications and I think kids don’t even understand what I mean by community service.
