[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent of a Walls sophomore; I don’t remember the prompt but they had to write a few paragraphs, handwritten. It was not too intense - just want to make sure your kid can write and organize their thoughts clearly.

This may sound a bit harsh, but it feels worth saying: if you are worried about your child being able to handle the admissions essay, I would think hard if Walls is the right place for your kid. There is a lot of independent work and the writing expectations are high, so if you’re providing a lot of support or have to motivate your child, Walls may not be the right fit. [/quote]

Lol.

There is so much grade inflation at Walls that the average GPA is close to 4.0.[/quote]

Cite your references![/quote]

Given how many APs kids take, and the fact that most other classes are honors, yes the average GPA is close to a 4.0.

Even if you got a B- in every AP class, that GPA is a 3.7.[/quote]

How many ap classes do most walls kids take each year? Does it change for juniors and seniors?[/quote]
