Does the fact this kid is an artist, taking an AP Art class, augur well for Stanford admission?
I think it is an unknowable question, though all else being equal, indications that someone is enrolled in an AP class is a positive indicator. Does the fact that by being an artist and taking AP Art that he is breaking stereotypes about football players count more than if, for example, he were enrolled in AP History, I don't know. I do think it is neat, and this from someone who is as un-artistic as one can be.

BC, are you an old fart provincialist? Like me? My freshman year in Cedro, Wilbur, during one of our first dorm bull sessions, someone said something and I said that was "neat." Instant laughs and ridicule from the Preppies (who predominated.). I was taken aback and have tried to avoid that word ever since. But, neat that you used it.
