[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Private schools kid definitely didn’t need top rigor but needed some rigor (kids getting into schools with honors calc as opposed to multivariable if Econ major, for example). It also depends on what kid will study. Top rigor and okay grades didn’t seem to do as well. Little rigor was also limiting. [/quote] Private schools steer kids by both gpa and rigor. But gpa counts heavily in the steering process. As many have mentioned on dcum, the ivy admits must have a high gpa, a high rigor is not necessary. At our school, the ivy admits tend to game the system by taking lower rigor courses. [/quote]
