[quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of variables, even with GPA. For example, is there an upward trajectory of grades? Why specific AP courses were take. (Hard ones or BS ones just to bump up GPA)? What does the rest of the schedule look like (rigorous classes? 4 years of foreign language and other classes the college values?). This is an art, not a science as much as people here want there to be a formula. Also, consider they will look at recs, essays, etc. It’s the whole package. Finally, ED is a binding decision. Where does the kid really want to go? (See ED regret thread). I think ED is over rated unless the kid really loves a school and is sure that is where they want to be and the family is sure they want to write that check. I have a kid at an $80k a year school (one of the ones referenced above but kid went RD) and it is no small commitment![/quote]
