[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be competitive without any hooks, shoot for a 3.9+ at Sidwell. This year, pretty much all non-athletic recruits, including legacy students, had above that threshold. In terms of taking the advanced math track, 3/4 attending Harvard were in Math IV, while those committed to Stanford and Yale took Calc II.[/quote] 13/18 (72%) of c/o 2024 Sidwell graduates heading to Ivies didn’t take Math IV. The vast majority of that 72% graduated with Calculus 1. You do not need to take Calculus 2 or Math IV to be admitted to an Ivy from Sidwell. [/quote] Sure, but OP asked about HYPSM. However, your information is still not completely right. Taking away the 2 athletic recruits, ~6/16 took Calc I. Given that 4 kids (not 5) took Math IV, that leaves ~6 taking Calc II, which is an even split between Calc I/II. Note additionally that this means 12/16 (excluding athletic recruits) did not take Calc I, which is the majority.[/quote]
