Potential Ivy Student?

<p>Not so sure about your chances.</p>

<p>Those 27 APs may hurt you. Surely you aren’t actually interested in all of those subjects. You seem to be trying for a record, but it may not be considered valuable by adcoms. (“Doesn’t this kid have anything better to do with his time? Doesn’t he have any other interests?”)</p>

<p>Also, you may come in with enough credits to graduate in 2 years. Why should a school admit someone whose relationship is going to be so brief and tangential? Why should a school admit someone who seems more interested in self-study than in taking the school’s own courses?</p>

<p>And what is this NPO Director? Please don’t tell us you started another unnecessary nonprofit that replicates more established organizations because you think it will help your application. Adcoms are aware of this. They don’t like it.</p>
