Seniors must be mulling over their RD options at this point. Will probably all be announced to friends etc within a couple of weeks.

First of all it’s not May 1st yet. Second of all, I feel bad for the teenagers under the microscope of nosy strangers like OP.

OP wasn't putting anyone under a microscope. This is a standard topic on this forum. If it makes you feel bad, you can leave, I suppose?

My high stats DC was WL to several Top 15-30 schools that in the recent past (2021, 2022) they were strongly located in the 100% zone on SCOIR for Sidwell.

Not that we ever expected 100%, but striking out on so many of those was a clear change from the past - they were not alone in this sort of outcome.

In this same T15-30 in 100% SCOIR zone:
- one regular acceptance
- one acceptance via an alternative entry pathway (for example - late start/early start/abroad/satellite ).

Rejected in all Top 10 and Top SLAC applications.

Accepted to some safeties T40-T60 and a low SLAC.

DC was grateful to have some options. This year was a shift for sure.

That's demoralizing and sorry you are dealing with that. Glad your DC has options. Super surprised about the SLACs.

Wow. Sorry to hear. Your DC sounds terrific. Any insights you can share on what you feel has shifted? The ED game? RD?
