<p>Stemit, thanks. Great post. I wonder however, if your S wouldn’t have still got his offers anyway - after all that is why many on here would give their right arm for their child to attend an Ivy, especially H, Y or P. I do not doubt that the athletics made the interviews more pleasurable for your S to attend, but just wonder if the athletics made that big a difference to the final outcomes. I am not disagreeing with you, just genuinely wondering because my S is currently thinking about which direction to focus on, and your post hits a number of very important considerations. Thanks again. </p>
<p>Thanks also Runners2, but as you are also an Ivy, did the athletics give a NEEDED/CRUCIAL edge? Thanks.</p>
