Applying to Top universities

[Bookmonster345]

My DD is 12, and is already incredibly academic. She has won a national engineering competition, and at the age of 6 had the reading ability of a 16 year old, in addition to getting 100% in the 11 plus. I think she is an ideal candidate to top US and. UK universities, and therefore I want to help make it possible for her to get in, Is there anything we can do now to give her a better chance of getting in to one of these unis?

Make sure she has other hobbies and a life and not just academic success. They want well rounded individuals who can cope with life.

There is a thread about this in the secondary schools topic, not sure what called but has got Harvard and oxford in thread title, so you may want to post on that thread

Universities are covered in the Higher Education threads rather than Further Education. No end of discussions about "top" universities etc there.

Heels, I created the thread in secondary education

The one by the op Dreamgirls with 276 posts? Didn't realise you had two different names sorry

Universities in the uk are regarded as higher education rather than further education, hth
