Very cool. Congrats to her and her parents.
Not easy to do. My neighbor's daughter is #2 out of 152 at our high school down the road and I don't think there was any chance she could have caught #1. FWIW, she was wait listed at Wake Forest and is attending Northeastern instead.
My twins aren't the same kind of scholars, coming in at #20 and #60, but what I did learn from the past year+ of the college selection process is that kids will get money - in some cases - a lot of money for academics.
For any of you guys reading this thread who have younger kids, don't be afraid to ride your kids like a cheap circus pony when it comes to doing well in school.
