[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to SCOIR, 3.93 at Sidwell is above the average accepted Sidwell student GPA at all of the top schools (including HYPSM) over the past 3 years. 1550 is above the corresponding SATs. Of course, SCOIR mixes up recruited athletes, legacies, and all others into one group. That said, your DC will be competitive many places.[/quote]

[b]Parents should ask Sidwell CCO to remove hooked applicants from SCOIR.[/b]NCS did this last year and it helps to get a more realistic view of your chances. [/quote]

Hooked is a subjective term that CCOs don't need to parse. A Sidwell senior is a Sidwell senior. Parents need to relax.[/quote]

I agree with other PP - remove hooked. At a minimum, athletic recruits, legacy, VIP[/quote]

Going to Sidwell itself is a hook.[/quote]

With respect,[b] in recent years, it has become the opposite of a hook[/b]. What you say may have been true prior to 2018 or so.. [/quote]

How so?[/quote]

+1000

This was less the case in the past for sure.
Increasingly the competition starts with comparison against students in your own school. The better the top students at Sidwell the greater the disadvantage for a merely good sidwell student.[/quote][/quote]
