[quote=Anonymous]I believe they moved away from standard testing to make the schools more equitable, no? Not all kids can afford test prep. I get the in-person essays; they make sense. No parent or other outside help. It is 100% kid. That said, my kid applied with a 4.0 and (according to teachers) great recs, and did not get an interview. I’m sure she looked just liked like a thousand or more other candidates in this way. No idea if what recommendation metrics look like though, e.g., if there were any actual quantitative metrics used to narrow the applicant pool. Anyone know how that works? [/quote]
