[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What your son tells you is true. And it's OK. My 99th percentile kids are happy and doing well at a school ranked in the 80s and a LAC in the 30s. There are surrounded by smart, motivated kids, and they are living their best lives.[/quote] +1 my "gifted" kid is at a state flagship with merit. Doing well. Big fig in a big pond. But, there are definitely other high achieving kids in the program. Grades and test scores alone won't get your kid into a T15. You need amazing extra curriculars, stellar essays and LoR. It's how the game is played. My kid didn't want to play that game, so even with their super high stats, they ended up at the state flagship . But, all's well that ends well.[/quote]
