[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son has his heart set on going there, and I don't know how realistic an option it will be for a B student coming from MCPS.[/quote] I'd be optimistic, if I were you. But you really need to go talk to the Admissions people at the school and get their sense of his chances. The clever answer to you question might be "Harder than it used to be". More people are applying probably becuase they are concerned about the public schools. The school has undergone a lot of positive changes in the last several years powered by a large alumni group that contains a significant number of very successful Washington people who really do care about the school. Genuine interest in a school counts for a lot. Of course, they'll be interested in what else he brings to the party. Is he an athlete? Is he interested in the corps of cadets?[/quote]
