Sounds like your kid had an excellent experience and two STEM majors is tremendous. But since your kid is done, as are many other long-term posters on cc, your family is in a different place at this point in time.
Your point is well-taken that in admissions, perhaps none of this matters. Because admissions is a closed process that we don’t see in detail, that may very well be true.
This thread was started because having options, guidance and potential pathways matters to me, and to other parents who are still guiding kids in high school. Many kids like mine were out of school learning online for 1.5 years. It was a craptastic experience for my kid, and they had parental support! A lot of other kids were left twisting in the breeze by their schools.
So finding experiences to close the huge gap that happened is seriously important. A lot of kids got crushed by this locking down. My kid’s curiosity and creativity was blunted by the screen time and lack of human interaction.
Basically, kids were stifled. Looking for practical ways that they can expand their horizons again. Because frankly, school was the not place many of these kids found support to foster their growth.
