[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Throughout the DMV, the main drivers are grades, scores, extracurricular activities, and other hooks. High performers at Burke do roughly as well as high performers at other schools, including public schools and Big 3. There are not as many high performers at Burke as at Big 3 or public schools with large numbers or students taking AP classes. One other thing: the college counselors at Burke are fantastic. They help students achieve their goals AND think about their goals. They don't assume they everyone's goal is to get into the most selective college possible. [/quote] I’d love to think it’s true but the Burke college matriculation list is decidedly not impressive, even if you consider a portion of the class is going a non traditional route. The top of the class may be going to schools like Georgetown or Wesleyan but no Ivys, T20, Michigan etc. [/quote]
