<p>Well looking at your app, I myself feel just as the post above stated, is that your rank is way to low for those schools. I also noticed that it says "Co-Captain, starting goalie" I whom is a hockey player find it very very weird to notice a goalie has an assistant capatin. Beyond that since your into all those sports in such, look at Boston University and University of Maryland.</p>
<p>yeah, i agree its weird that im co cap'n, but thats what my coach told me last week, i was just like, oh thats cool</p>
<p>as for my rank, my school is considered one of the most prestigious public high schools in the country, we have 20 intel semi finalists each year (the most for any hs), etc. as stated, i am UNRANKED, i am just approximating</p>
<p>yes ur school is very famous so relative enough u should be fine and ur rank shouldnt hurt u. u are in like the top 5 high schools of the nation lol</p>
<p>just going to a top school isn't good enough, you have to be in that top 10% unless you've got something special going for you, I still stand by at least at harvard, princeton and stanford it will be the reason you're rejected if you're rejected</p>
<p>you should definitely try to get recruited...along those lines...you must raise your SAT score because less than 1450 is very hard for coaches from ivies to push for admission</p>
<p>PUSH the chess thing lol...anything to make you stand out in a crowd. schools will realize your school circumstances...i'm sure hpy take a LOT more kids from your hs than from many others, just raise the essential creds because weak SAT's or GPA will automatically lower you in the eyes of that calliber of school.
also...try to get some nice "match" schools or safeties that you'd be really happy with, becuase ivies are REALLY unpredictable.</p>
<p>super6, he doesnt need a 1450 to get recruited at the ivies. he's fine in terms of his sat score if hes a recruit. im a recruit for the Penn crew team with a 1330, and that score wasnt an issue at all. the 1360 that he has wont make it hard for him to get recruited.</p>
<p>and i do htink that he should start talking to some coaches. but hes pretty late. most schools get their recruits from early decision. and recruits usually start talking to coaches over hte summer. if he likes cornell, they obviously have an amazing hockey team, so he could try there.</p>
<p>thanks for all your input so far peoples, i tried contacting the coaches awhile back but to no avail, the goalies for the princeton team are mad good, like junior canadian cup champs and stuff</p>
<p>super 6: you should definitely try to get recruited...along those lines...you must raise your SAT score because less than 1450 is very hard for coaches from ivies to push for admission</p>
<p>Thats not even close to being true super 6. Look at the average SAT scores of the football teams and its not even close to 1400... some athletes at ivies that r extremely good and recruited by the ivies are down in the 1200-1300 range, or even lower.</p>
<p>yea, some students who aren't athletes get in with 1400s-1450s, but I imagine it's pretty difficult to get recruited if nobody is looking at you</p>
