She does have rigor. If she’d taken a few less AP classes, she’d have a higher unweighted GPA. She’s taking every possible AP.

Do you think they consider activities at all? She has a lot of activities and leadership positions. But I remember, even from my own high school days, FSU was more fixated on numbers than other schools (such as I remember people with really high grades and good activities taking and retaking the SAT to get another 10 points). They rejected another friend of my daughter’s who has a 4.5 and great activities but whose test scores were not up to snuff (25 ACT, lower than that SAT).
