[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD wasn't so lucky. Waitlisted at both low reaches, which I would have put as high matches based on grades and SATs alone. According to Naviance, the scores it takes to get into these schools from DD's school are significantly higher than what the common data set would indicate. Students really are competing against kids from their own schools. But inexplicably, some kids from the same high school with lower grades, scores, and ECs got in. The whole process has been frustrating and mystifying. At least she is warming up to one of her match schools.[/quote] My DD was also wait listed at 2 and rejected at 1 school I'd call "strong match" due to stats and Naviance. She opted to accept a spring admission to a school that was more of a reach and is happy with that. But the entire process was such a mystery (and this is our 3rd time through it). [/quote]
