Their loss.

This process is so dehumanizing. I’m pushing my guy to rise above and try not to take personally. He’s got a great school for him and he will have a great life regardless of this lottery process

The stats and stories that worked even 3 years ago at at least one of a handful of high reaches for high stats kids with awesome stories no longer works

Rejected to all three Ivies he applied to and rejected to UCB today.
1570 SAT
4.0/4.4
Lots of APs all 5s and one 4
Eagle Scout
NMF
Plus other decent ECs.
No top 25 for us.
We think his application just wasn’t strong enough even though it was great. Too much competition and over represented
