[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some of the experienced private school parents posting in this thread had kids in HS more than a couple of years ago, and they don't understand how much more competitive college admissions has gotten in the last few years for UMC, unhooked kids in the DMV. My oldest DD graduated HS in 2015, had 3.5 UW GPA/35 ACT/NMF and got into schools like Duke and Swarthmore. My youngest is now a HS junior with a 3.87 UW GPA/1560 SAT and has been told both those schools are reaches and unlikely to admit her.[/quote] Nope this year. Top 5 private. Those grades can still get you into great schools. A definite? No way. But yes, a decent chance for one. No matter what your scores are, EVERY top college is a reach no matter what. You also have to watch out for yield protection for some top 50 schools too. [/quote]
