Can more graduated seniors do "actual results" threads?

so, there’s this kid who lives in my area, he’s pretty well known and there’s been newspaper articles about him (!), and I have friends who know him, so here’s what I know of his stats:

School: Private Christian
State: SC
Race: white

SATs: took when he was a freakin sophomore and got 1600/1600. Apparently took the new one and got 2300/2400.

GPA, etc: no idea but I’m sure they’re stellar.

I think his biggest hook was tennis. . .he was ranked No.1 in the state for a while and is consistently ranked at the top.

Yeah. So, he ONLY applied to Harvard. . .and got in, of course.

Mr. Guzick was recruited to play for Harvard, it wasnt the only school he applied to. He had offers from YPS too.

loslobos71:
Oh. Sorry. Lol my sources weren’t the most legitimate. :]
Do you know him?

Nope. My area has a lot of top national/regional players, so I keep up with the rankings and such. BTW, he’s ranked #18 in the country.

kliviz made up his stats
oh wait nvm those are his friend’s stats

Comments
Not anywhere near as prestigious as most of the other posts, but I killed my GPA freshman and sophomore year by slacking off. The 2 in studio art is a killer, only because of the money put into developing the portfolio for it. I’m in love with Simmons, so I’m really excited about the fall.

this site has tons of listings and it’ll give you your chances of getting in to a certain place.
