[quote=Anonymous]Another K-8 parent here who did admissions this year. We didn’t necessarily want a Big 3 or anything like that as we were looking solely at fit, but we did think our child would be competitive at the more difficult schools given that our child had all As, really strong SSAT scores, lots of extracurricular activities, and likely very strong teacher recommendations. But we got into the same set of schools as the kids who were less academically inclined. The list posted below contains the schools we were admitted to and is a pretty good representation of your likely choices with a kid like the profile above unless you have a money, sibling, sports hook. URM helps but a lot less than they used to.[/quote]
