[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the main difference is the type of applicant UChicago gets from magnets and Exeter/Andover. The top kids at Exeter and Andover are rarely applying ED1 to UChicago (a few athletes: https://weareexeter.com/sports/2024/8/6/big-red-at-the-next-level.aspx ). Other NE prep schools do use UChicago like the Big 3 here do with ED2 after not getting the REA or ED1 results a kid wants. [/quote] OP of the "levels" post. Agree that the top 10% at prep/magnet schools don't apply to Chicago. At our school the typical Chicago applicant is a high achieving kid with a "flaw" or absolutely no hook (basic ECs like sports, band, etc). The reality is those kids would be extremely unlikely to get into a T10 so Chicago is a great option.[/quote] Most of the Chicago ED1 kids at our school are in the second quintile, with 1500+ SAT scores.
