[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m AA and have several friends who are HYPS grads who were discouraged from applying and instead steered towards UIUC, GWU, Rutgers, Rochester by guidance counselors. I had such a different experience in HS and in fact wish that I’d taken my GC’s advice. I’ve seen my friends’ experiences echoed in some of the Black@“eliteschoolname” posts on IG this year. My takeaway is that GCs are a crapshoot and their advice should be taken with a grain of salt, unless families you know and trust with similar profiles vouch for them.[/quote] Did you ever think this was b/c HYPS schools are hard to get into and not about race. How do you know that the same guidance counselors didn’t give similar advice to white students.[/quote]
