[quote=Anonymous]The data is discouraging- I think for many parents though they have heard the horror stories until they go through it with their first one they just don't really believe it. A few things to be aware of with the Naviance data. The GPA show is the final GPA of the prior applicants, it may have been higher or lower at the point of application. It provides no info on trajectory, some of the high stats kids not admitted had their better grades in 9th/10th and fell down a bit in 11th. Reverse is true when you see admission for slightly lower GPA, possible that the lower grades were all in 9th grade. In addition many colleges recalculate GPA (don't include 9th grade, don't count non academic classes etc) Naviance data is especially useless for these colleges [/quote]
