[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the best thing is probably getting into a feeder school, then excel there. The chances from a non-feeder is really really tiny.[/quote] 100% true on the feeder high school. Our non-DMV private gets 5-10% of class into Northwestern; 5-10% into WashU and 5% into Vanderbilt (but not this year - unclear what happened), and many test-optional into Tufts and Rice, provided not STEM. The school doesn't place well with some of the others on this list (CMU or JHU), other than a random one-off in certain years. [/quote]
