[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cannot believe that a kid with those test scores cannot get into elite schools. The GPA is so dependent on the school and classes taken. Wow, my kids are MS but this is an eye opener for me. I don't dispute any of it because I do not know but this is just shocking.....[/quote]Remember that there are just so many elite seats available. When the time comes, you will see that your college applicant will be competing with thousands of kids with comparable good grades and scores. Not only that, your child will be also be competing for seats for ED and possibly RD. UPenn admitted a whopping 54% of its 2020 freshman class ED. Since your kids are in MS, you have time to research and reflect on this.[/quote]And the remaining 46% at regular decision seats will compete with new applicants and those deferred from early decision. Some ED programs don't defer.[/quote]
