[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean forget elite schools. The insanity goes beyond the Ivy League. Flagship state schools are very, very competitive. [/quote] This is what’s scary to me. When we are telling kids with basically perfect GPAs who took all the hardest classes at their school “you might not get into Maryland” there is something wrong with the system. The top state college should be able to accept and educate our state’s top students. [/quote] Yep--same in VA. Even with three strong state schools, depending on the HS, students have to be in the top 10-15% of their class to get in.[/quote]
