本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛question for those who are waiting for childern's college application result in March like me. Two more monthes seem too long. I was never such anxious for anything in my life before.
My daughter only applied HYPMS, I know that's kind of risky but it's her decision, she got deferred from H in early desicion which made us feel even unconfident, and my friend politely told me college choosing A over B for no reason.
Her brief,
1) SAT 2400 in first sit. 2) SAT II - Math II 800, Literature 800, Chinese 800, Physics 770 (took in grade 9). 3) GPA weighted 4.49 (One A- ) 4) 4 years Volleyball teams( freshman, JV, Varsity, Varsity) 5) 3 years Secetery of Student Council 6) Presidential award for community services. 7) NJ Governor's school attendee. 8) National merit semifinalist. 9) Many piana performance awards. 10) NJ science olympiad regional and state medal winners.
She is one of candidates of 2012 Presidential Scholars Program which will not contribute to her application. Our high school ranks between 50 - 100 in all New jersey high schools.
Beside teaching her to play volleyball, I didn't contribute much for her education. If she fails to be accepted by any one of HYPMS, it very difficult for our family to accept the fact.
Waiting for the best luck and wish best lucks for all of you.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
