[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son’s worked pretty hard to get good grades and has only one or two grades below 90 (like 88, not 68) grade 7-8. He’s a natural and confident student who is a good writer (an impromptu essay would be just his style) explains math to his friends in whatever class they’re in. His teachers are glad to recommend him as needed. But I hear that the rejection rate at SWW and Banneker is pretty high. Why is it so high? [b]Can I take comfort in their rejecting large numbers of students with bad GPAs whose parents just apply anyway, or maybe they’re including everyone who puts the school on their lottery application?[/b] What are the factors that are going to keep us guessing?[/quote] Of course not. You need to have plan A, B, and C (to include private) if you are looking at decent HS options in DC. [/quote]
