Whereas it is true that most college admissions committees (ADCOMs) view secondary school (high school) academic performance and standardized test scores (PSAT, SAT Arden Key Hoodie , ACT) as the two most important attributes in a college application profile, there has been a growing emphasis on other parts of the application. College counselors will tell you, gone are the days where grades and tests are all that matter to a colleges admission officers.
With more and more information available Brandon Parker Hoodie , students know which schools they can be competitive at. Be it Yale or the University of Alabama, the students applying and being seriously considered by college admissions committees generally look very similar to other candidates from a grade and standardized test perspective.
Couple this lack of candidate differentiation with the fact that securing the best candidates has become more competitive. In the last three years, average college applications per college bound student have gone up from 4.1 to 7.2.
For these reasons colleges are putting a renewed weight on candidate performance outside of high school grades and the standardized tests. More weight is being placed on other parts of the application profile. College admissions consultants and counselors using tools like Naviance have long been focusing their clientsstudents on the importance of solid intangibles. There is not a finite definition of the intangibles (hence the name). Generally though Gareon Conley Hoodie , universities and colleges are looking for evidence of extracurricular activities, participation in athletics, recognitionhonors from the school and external bodies Johnny Townsend Hoodie , demanding courseload, work experience, and degree of candidate fit (typically evaluated through college essays and on-campus interviews).
Admit Insights estimates that depending on the college (and all colleges are different) up to 35% of the decision of admission can depend on intangibles. For this reason the Admit Insights Candidate Strength ScoreTM has taken this into account to assess the competitiveness of a college application profile. Understanding the components of this score can be as valuable as a college admission advisor.
College applicants completing college admissions applications and college admission counselors should spend time ensuring the academic house is in order with good high school grades and college standardized tests P.J. Hall Hoodie , but they should also spend some time thinking about the softer side of college admissions. This will help maximize college admissions chances.

You find 2 big types of gold investment – allocated gold and unallocated gold.
Allocated gold investment is when the buyer of the metal is getting physical gold – so Kolton Miller Hoodie , gold bars and gold coins are major types of allocated gold investment. In many ways, allocated gold investment tends to appeal to people who are anti-risk. This is due to the fact that, when you invest in a good quality coin or bar Reggie Nelson Hoodie , there is very little 鈥渕arket risk鈥? When the gold spot price rises, so would the underlying value of the coin or bar.
You must be aware of a few issues that you must think about when you opt for allocated gold. Things like:
Where the coins or gold are to be kept. Bank safes are a good idea for this.
If they are Insured.
If stored at home, make certain they are stored in a comfortable and dry area.
