[quote=Anonymous]Know kids at both and have kids at one. Honestly seems hard to know. First, somewhat depends on what teachers you land (somewhat luck of the draw as some just don’t give As) and what rigor you pick. And even still hard to compare across different high schools/different students like that. What is much more knowable/accurate is that there really isn’t such thing as an Ivy-worth GPA at these schools anymore. Search through the threads and you’ll read that the top students that are unhooked are basically not getting into Ivies and those slightly lower down with hooks are. Where it will be in 5 years when your kid applies to college is anyone’s guess. So if it were me, I wouldn’t try to game it like that in such an unknowable environment and one that’s not favoring unhooked too students (for Ivies - they do great). Go where your kid feels most comfortable (or gets in). [/quote]
