I will add:
2 years varsity spring track, captain and varsity letter senior year
4 years winter track, captain and varsity letter senior year
Freshman and JV Lacrosse
President NHS
Student council
Eagle Scout with lots of different leadership positions
member of various school clubs and over 400 hours of community service.
So his EA were not zero, but not the best, Boys State would have helped. Having winter and spring track may not have counted as 2 sports. And I do agree that the 680 hurt. DS regrets not trying harder to get that above 700. He was convinced that have 800 math would make up for that less than stellar CR score. It did not. No sour grapes here. I just wanted to share DS story. He is very happy with NROTC and the civilian college he has been admitted to. I just want to make sure that others don't get too confident that a high SAT score is good enough and hopefully others can learn from what my DS now wishes he would have done.
