[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Specific high school context matters more than conventional DCUM wisdom.[/b] At our small high school, the unweighted 3.9-ish crowd with high rigor got into Harvard, Yale, Stanford but the surprise for us was that our DC's friend group (3.6-3.8) got into very good schools (so-called "new Ivies" like Northwestern, Georgetown, Tufts, WashU, so-called Ivy "plus" schools like UChicago). They also did very well at NYU and USC. DCUM conventional wisdom would not have predicted that. But [b]DCUM wisdom is not high school specific. [/b]For our school, it was not helpful at all to read comments. [/quote] +1[/quote]
