Where did you DC22 apply ED1? What’s up for ED2 if needed?

Bet she gets in. Interesting ECs and Boarding school is most impressive.

When schools have a 96% rejection rate and they can fill classes with SCEA/ED 1530+/4.0/interesting EC kids, everything is a crap shoot.

Kids and parents just need to understand that the metrics get you past the initial intake and then there are still thousands of applications for hundreds of seats.

Why on earth would you think that boarding school is impressive?

Have you seen the number of Ivy acceptances from boarding?

ED2 is probably Bowdoin.

Interesting. Couldn't Bowdoin fill their class with similar candidates in ED1?

W&M, then Vassar

In state VA. Going for hatch/high match.

Grinnell for ED1 and then either no ED2 or possibly William and Mary.

I’d be curious on stats for the WM/Grinnell/Vassar posters above. Unless your kids are over 1500s, then I don’t want to know. Hoping for under 1400s.

I mean maybe, but they don’t. Else they wouldn’t admit for ED2 or RD. Why do you ask?

Why? I mean I don’t get your question re: under 1400.

Sorry. The GPA is actually low for WM and counts for more. Hence, ED.

Why are you hoping for this?

So there’s hope for non-1500s kids. Not meant to be competitive. My kid isn’t even applying this year.
