[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is glad she didn't get into TJ. The friends she knows there are struggling to make Bs while she has an unweighted 4.27 at her local HS.[/quote] While this was the right decision for your daughter, you have to take into account the rigor and courses at both schools. Colleges look at and are intimately familiar with the "school profile" of every high school in the region. What is a 4.27 at Marshall High School that offers the IB Program is very different than a 3.9 at TJ. It depends on the courses your child took advantage of at the school she attends. A 4.27 is great, depending on the rigor of her course load and if she chose to pursue that at her school. [/quote]
