“I got a 2360 on my fifth attempt and am aiming for 2400 on my sixth attempt. Outside activities? Of course, I have many outside activities where I contribute to and influence my community and my school. Why would you even ask?”

HP: if you think you’ll impress someone with a 2400 versus make them say: “Eieww” about you as a lifeless test-wonk, go for it. But since you’re on the Princeton forum, perhaps you should use some of your 2360 knowledge to mine Princeton’s webpages to see what THEY value.

(Hint: a 2400 isn’t it)

Jeff Brenzel of Yale said:
“At the same time, we are not particularly drawn to one-dimensional students who have made their sole or primary objective in life amassing the largest number of honors or AP courses conceivable, accompanied by multiple efforts to achieve the world’s highest test scores.”
