Tufts says that they look at the student as a whole, more like Standford and Reed if you say that’s what they do.

I was in the same situation this year with my parents and their divorce, I handled it horribly and I ended up needing to do therapy.

I just made sure my guidance counselor mentioned this in her letter and i have made my second quarter grades MUCH better. Hopefully Tufts will look at the whole picture, which I believe they do.

The thing is, is that it is a highly competitive school, with brilliant kids applying, so good luck!
