[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This year the admittance to top 20 schools is down unless kids not posting.   [/quote]
It might be surprising to some, but more and more HS kids are keeping ED acceptance results to themselves out of kindness to their peers. They don’t all need to instantly rush to Instagram to brag. Last year it wasn’t until March/April that I started to see the results for many top students I knew at the HS I teach at.

And to the person who posted the list of all the private school Instagram pages - good grief. Take a chill pill. 🙄[/quote]

++1.  Anyone who wants to see the list can look up the overly active thread in the private school forum or find the IG pages themself.  Let’s try and do better by not stalking HS Seniors and their respective HS about college acceptances/decisions while they are in the midst of a stressful time.[/quote]

The public ones, at least, are unofficial and self-reported. My own kid doesn’t even have an instagram account. [/quote]

All of them are self-reported but no kid is going to lie about it. Your kid doesn't need an instagram account to have their admit posted.[/quote]

Kids only post once they've made a final decision to attend.  So kids admitted ED often report (but some don't).  Kids admitted EA often are happy to get the admission but waiting to see about their RD schools before making an announcement of where they'll attend.  [/quote]
