[quote=Anonymous]OP -- it sounds as though your daughter has done well. You can look at naviance to see how she compares and what sort of scores each college is looking for. It is much harder for girls now than boys to get into great colleges since more girls are outscoring boys. Those scores would be great for a boy but may not be so great for a girl. You mentioned she went to an all-girls school. If it is NCS or Holton...the competition is stiff. You would need to know if your DD is going to be in the top 10 percent (even though the schools say they don't rank...they know internally what the rankings are). Also, we would need to know what actvities your DD is in. She would need to excel in at least one activity and also needs great recs and essays. Good luck. It isn't easy nowadays.[/quote]
