[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the candidates from one high school are typically bundled together and discussed/compared/contrasted. If the college your kid is interested in typically takes a lot of kids from your private HS, the AO of that college will likely have a call with the HS college counsellor to discuss the candidates and who would be the best fit. Not just stats since colleges want to balance the class. Your kid should have a meeting with their CC to discuss strategy as [b]it's in the CC's best interest to place everyone somewhere strong.[/b][/quote] All CC offices in the DMV are not this nuanced. Some clearly encourage the 5 kids to run the table and let the rest of the class scramble. Others are really good at dispersing the wealth. I know they don't ultimately control where kid apply but I have kids at two different privates the approach (and results) are very different between schools---especially for kids outside of the very top academic kids.
