What about extracurriculars? Ivy leagues are far more competitive than they used to be even 5 years ago.

3.8 GPA, I think a little over 1500. And yeah, she had good extracurriculars focused on her desired major of biology, over 100 hours volunteering at a nature reserve, she did an internship at vet, I know she also president of some science oriented club at her school. Definitely at least as good as what I had, probably a bit better desu.

this is america in a nutshell. you put minimal effort into school in the UK and you get into ucl/icl/oxford no problem for cheap. meanwhile in america you spend 16 hours a day slaving at your passion AND THEN pay £100,000... if you're lucky

schools don't care about grades SAT anymore. I knew a lot of retards who got into better schools than me. I know a guy who literally failed his AP exams and got into a top Ivy Leage. Everyone who got into good schools wrote about sob stories and their involvement in do nothing clubs. I didn't write about that stuff. I wrote about top of the school academics and my years of hobby programming, and I got nowhere.

that sounds like a typical boring overachiever, ivy league gets endless people with an identical resume/extracurriculars, not elite enough

Did she write about some grand life goal about how she will improve the world in some way? my theory is that that is what colleges are probably looking for these days.

It's alive and well. Being black or hispanic gives you extra points for college admissions. Colleges are legally required to admit a certain amount of people each year based on their race

Tf? Have you ever heard about affirmative action? If anything, OP's sister's status as a female minority would significantly boost her chances of getting in

Affirmative action is racism. The fact that it didn't save OP's sister doesn't mean it wasn't stacked in her favor
