[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would probably be helpful to list location of private school. It makes a difference.

Midwest privates definitely get kids closer to top 40% of class into Michigan, WashU, Emory etc. This whole exercise is so school specific.[/quote]
It's full of lies. 50% of Emory students went to private high schools, yet 85% are in the Top 10% so just so happens DMV private students make up the other 15% at Emory? Not low income urm students? [/quote]

it is 85% of the schools that rank that are in the top 10%. very few private schools rank. Deciles can be inferred from data and college counseling offices always say the best thing they can say(they will say she is the current valedictorian or he is in the current top few students) but if the policy on the profile is the school does not rank then that school's data will not be included in the CDS under % in the top10%.

DP,  DMV private, and ours does not do as well as the midwest private poster above but EMORY ED for non-athletes is common down into the third decile, occasionally 4th especially for Oxford-emory ED. RD Emory is very common in the  second decile, IVIES/T10s are common in the second decile IF they ED and if they have top rigor, not-quite top privates like ChicagoED unhooked happens into the third decile some years, and yes our school releases lists of the top and second decile, they tell parents and students what decile they are at the start of senior year and kids talk and compare GPA all the time. Scoir is by year with recruited athletes removed. parents know almost every dot. [/quote]
