[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Prepandemic, it was harder to get into Walls and harder to get As at Walls. Now, probably 50 percent of the kids are getting straight As. [/quote] Does anyone know what percent for which this is actually true? I thought my rising senior with all As would be an exception and would be viewed as such by colleges but maybe we need to reassess?[/quote] Go onto Naviance. Pick a college that your child is interested in. See how many student have applied that are around the same GPA. I remember seeing a handful of 4.6 GPAs - but the reality is that at that point it is not about your peers at Walls that you need to "reassess", it is about really understanding that there are a lot of great students from around the world who have done some really interesting things through high school who are applying to top colleges.
