“The trick in applications is to distinguish an application from all the other 3.9 GPA apps. Especially among girls, a 3.9 GPA is quite common. Who is she? Why would colleges want her–especially–on their campus”

Thanks for mentioning this. She hasn’t taken SATs yet. She knows she has to distinguish herself from the pack. She’s thinking about it. She’s not looking at ivies. So far she’s thinking about U of Maryland, BU, Tufts (a reach) and a couple of others. We looked at Cornell but she was fairly intimidated.
