[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least one kid applying to Brown was top 5 percent of the class and deferred. Friends were very surprised. [/quote] Agree. At least one of my DC's good friends took most challenge courses (both math and science) and get almost all As got deferred.[/quote] What race were all these deferred kids?[/quote] most are white and Asians. Almost no URM applied for Brown[/quote] But the URM gets the blame, all the time, because there could be no other reason why DC didn't get admitted. A seat had to have been stolen by an under qualified URM, right? Try this on for fact: There are a lot -- no, A LOT of talented and high performing students out there. There are many in this area. Do not knock the talent and achievement of the magnet schools in this area. Also, there are great students all over, maybe not as concentrated in one spot as at Sidwell. But they do get in to top schools as well. [/quote]
