[quote=Anonymous]Sidwell gave access to SCOIR (for class of '23) for a window from Spring Jr to Fall Sr year (I do not think they had done this before). I found it helpful to understand some basic big picture landscape info, while keeping in mind it has lots of limitations. Even with those limitations, I could compare COVID results vs pre-COVID. It also gave us a general sense of places where TONS of Sidwell kids seemed to apply vs fewer (very interesting for schools that seemed otherwise similar). We also found it to highlight a few schools that seemed to "really like" Sidwell students vs other that "were less favorable" (again - for schools that otherwise seemed similar). You could also breakdown ED/EA/RD if there were enough applicants. Of course hidden in the numbers is knowing whether acceptances are legacy, athlete etc. There are also far more limitations for small schools (or sub-categories like ED) where not many students have applied and access to data is blocked. It was also pretty spotty throughout the window - at some the system appeared to be updated and I could not longer see anything (not even in my child's account). But we were beyond a point at which it felt worth reaching out to CCO to inquire about regaining access.[/quote]
