[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know what to say, OP. At my kid’s private all the acceptances were SCEA, REA, ED and EA. My kid (top flight) got in nowhere RD and IVY day was a complete bust. Only solace was that his friends experienced the same. Just prepare your kid in advance [/quote] Same here. Ivy day was a giant bust at our top private. 95% of the top20 acceptances were early. There was one RD Ivy admit. [/quote] I think this is very high school-dependent. Ivy day is a chance to get the very tippy top of the class, niche/truly different applicants. In late March/RD, last 2 cycles, our school had better luck with: Duke (maybe 1 really spiky kid) Northwestern (a handful) Cornell (1-3 kids at some of the niche colleges) Vanderbilt (mostly deferred ED2 kids) Georgetown (a large handful) Emory Rice (maybe 1) WashU USC (a really large handful) [/quote]
