[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Chevy Chase Median SAS of selected students: Verbal 132 Quantitative 127 and Nonverbal 127 My kid's scores were V- 112, Q-117, and NV-128 Number of correct answers/total: V-49/65, Q-49/60, NV-60/65 4 ES's on report cards My kid didn't get accepted and has been crying eyes out the past two days. I had no idea it meant so much to my child. It's heartbreaking to see. [/quote] I feel your pain -- my DC reacted much the same way two years ago (not accepted or waitlisted for HGC even though DC achieved the median score in one category, was slightly above the median score in another, and was way above the median score in the third, and also had strong grades and teacher recommendations). After crying it out (because, at bottom, it never feels good to be rejected especially when your BFFs or friend(en)emies are getting high-fives for their acceptance), my DC got back to business and ended up being accepted at both Eastern and Takoma Park (and because of the HGC experience, didn't run around school broadcasting this news). I hope that your DC is feeling better soon and, since Spring Break is here, that all the talk of "who's in, who's out" will have died out by the time classes resume. [/quote]
