@novicemom23kids I got into a couple of top 40 schools with an 1860 SAT, 3.7 GPA, and some volunteering hours. If she aces the essay and really delves into her personality, then she can get into some very good schools. In my opinion, EC’s don’t matter unless you can really personify them in the essay. You can make very dull EC’s look fantastic and show how it helped you grow as a person. Don’t forget that teacher recommendations can make a difference. If she has a good relationship with her teachers, tell her to ask them for recs. You are really discounting your daughter at these schools that a lot of people can get into. The essays will make the biggest difference.
