[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Vanderbilt, Emory, Georgetown, shoe-in for your state flagship.[/quote] Not so for a girl. My daughter scored higher, had spectacular grades (straight As, 5s on APs, etc) and multiple awards. She was rejected by Vandy, and the main Emory campus rejected her as well. Waitlisted at Boston College. For girls, it's BRUTAL![/quote] I'm sorry to hear about your daughter's disappointment. But there are more data points to consider than just her gender and test scores. For example, many if not most schools take into account the program/major applies to. Her major may have been very competitive and she was weighed against all applicants aspiring to be a writer/nurse/engineer/etc...[/quote] Like the fact she's white? Yes. That was a huge factor.
