What are some stories of students getting admitted to Stanford or the Ivies with a low SAT?
I sort of knew a kid with a 1370 sat score who got into Brown and cornell. She wasn't the brightest bulb in the box but she had a few things going for her:
✅ She was low income and from an underrepresented minority.
✅She was a REALLY AMAZING WRITER. She got a near full score for her IB English extended essay and was known for winning a butt ton of local/county writing competitions
✅Had a high GPA and was taking an impressive courseload. She graduated with an UW 3.77 gpa and had the IB diploma + 5 AP 5’s
✅She took advantage of everything. She made friends with everyone and probably had brilliant recommendations. Although for some reason her extracurriculars weren't very impressive
✅Had an extremely sad family history. Her Dad murdered her mom and she was living with her relatives
✅WAS ACTUALLY FRIENDS WITH A FORMER IVY STUDENT. There was an old guy that she helped on the weekends. We didn't think much about it until it turned out the old guy was a former Yale student and had a PhD from Columbia
