[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you guys seen this? It's the matriculation data for unhooked kids from Harvard Westlake. It's REALLY interesting. https://students.hw.com/Portals/44/completehandbook2023.pdf A couple of thoughts: --Their GPAs seem to be a touch higher than those at DC privates. Many kids are applying with above a 3.8. Very few are applying with below a 3.4. Our DC private has almost no kids with a 3.8+ That said, the Ivies have a pretty strict GPA cut-off of about 3.8. Still lots of lower kids trying to apply without luck. I can totally see this at our private "my kid is special! they can get into an Ivy with a 3.6!!" Um. NO Other schools like NYU, Georgetown, Tufts seem to love HW kids. [/quote] Schools love rich kids (and HW is LA rich, which is a very different thing from DC rich) and kids with celebrity parents. A full pay dullard with a dad who is a well known producer is getting into NYU [/quote]
