<p>Back on track, would have to think that NATIONAL AWARD OF SOME TYPE (AND I do not necessarily mean National Merit Finalist), RESEARCH, and playing some type of Sport! Have to agree with one of the earlier posts that above a 2250 really does not make much difference on an app if you have the stats previously listed and perhaps some of the above-mentioned. Above all, something about your son needs to stand out on the app and I think that the things I mentioned help an applicant stand out above the sea of 2250+ scored applicants. Good Luck!</p>
