And on another thread, you had 4.24. That’s not in the pool of kids where 47% were admitted. Plus, over 4 years of hs, apparently your ECs were slim. (Plus, none relate to a possible math major.) And how you presented the rest, including essays, matters, in holistic. As does rigor.

You could have been the highest stats kid they ever saw and still mute your chances. An admit isn’t like a hs award. Much depends on what a kid presents, in total, how that reflects energies, challenges taken on (outside classes,) good will, and the biggie: thinking. Not just stats. Not.
