[quote=Anonymous]So, DCUM is my secret addiction these days (it's better than Ben and Jerry's!). I've read a few posts now that talk about average GPAs in elite privates being in the B/B+ range. That's a 3.0/3.3 on the 4.0 scale. How does this affect college admissions, i.e. what kind of school do these kids attend? When I applied to college (from a public high school), kids with a 3.3 average would have been doomed to pretty mediocre colleges, I realize it's different with private schools, but how different? Is it better for your kid to graduate from a public with a 4.0 GPA and impressive.SATs or a 3.3 from a private school with the same SATs? [/quote]
