thumper,
DS2 (currently a soph) is looking at polisci/history and that range of selectivity in schools…I would be thrilled with those scores. My son doesn’t love math, either, but is competent at it. I feel confident that DS2’s verbal scores will be very good (gotta love that IB), and 700+ on math will earn him a nice big steak. ;)

Make those Chicago essays sing, if that is a top choice. Work on putting together a great activities resume – not necessarily one that has one activity from each of a menu of categories, but one that speaks to your S/D’s interests and passions. DS1 went through almost as many versions of the activity resume as his essays. In the end, I think the resume really reinforced his essays – it was a good use of words and actions.
