@arwarw: I want to say to you that I am unfamiliar with EQ as a term, though I realize after reading in context that I have seen it mentioned here at CC a few times. I cannot but fully agree with your statement about the admissions people at the top tier universities really sensing who the applicant is beyond the quantitative measures that almost all of their applicants surely have.

My kid is a walking, breathing heart with long legs, and was recognized in his high school for an unerring ability to know when his class might have stepped out of line, and for then stepping up to the plate to make things right, in as much as one kid can. Among all external measures for his being a strong candidate for MIT, I am sure, were the letters of recommendation that I have to believe spoke to the person he is.
