[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD was advised by counselors experienced w recruiting to take regular math instead of honors if she couldn’t for sure get an A in honors. They said GPA matters more than level of course. If you can get an A in honors then great you are that much better off, but be sure. So she is taking regular to get an A and have a great GPA by end of 10th and then take more APs and honors 11th and 12th grade. Her private doesn’t allow you to take that many anyways. And it has good recruiting. [/quote]\ This is not true if you're looking that the NESCAC schools (other than Trinity and Conn College). My DD was told she was the #1 top recruit by two high academic NESCAC programs. She did not pass the pre-read at either, both saying her academic rigor was not high enough. She was at a local very rigorous private, but taking the regular level courses, as she has severe ADHD. She's a great, hard-working student who would crush it at those schools, but their academic index, even for the most desired athletes (outside of football, that is), has zero flexibility. She's going to a top-25 D1 instead, just as an example of how different the NESCAC is when it comes to athletic recruiting. They require both rigor and high gpa.[/quote]
