[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sure your “average” kid is wonderful and good luck to them. I would look at where kids from her school from last year’s class ended up.[/quote] This is exactly right - it depends on your HS and where kids with similar profiles end up. For example, at our school, only one kid has been rejected from Tulane in the past three years, and she probably had the lowest GPA in the grade. Emory is an excellent, highly selective school, but from our HS you can get in with a relatively low GPA, esp if you ED or ED2. There are certain highly ranked schools that WL a lot of kids from our HS so that when the accepted ones do not take their spots, the college can go to the WL and just take another kid. But none of that is relevant to you or your kid, because it is very high school dependent - your school scattergrams will show the trends you should focus on.[/quote]
