[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's pretty funny. Mine had top grades at Holton and the college counselor wanted her to go to "Villa NoWhere"...i.e. Villonova. She ended up at top Ivy. Your kid must be a legacy or you must give a lot of money to Holton.

[quote=Anonymous]My daughter is a B+ student at Holton with good scores and her counselor (supported by Naviance) seems to indicate she could get into a lot of great places, especially if she applies ED.  She's looking at places like Bowdoin, Kenyon, Grinnell (Bowdoin would have to be ED) and counselor says she has a good shot at all.  As people have said, there is a wide range of "B" but she has mostly A- or B+ in her classes and several honors/AP.  She's not interested in Ivy League or most of the top schools but I'm confident she will get into several good schools given her background and the reputation of Holton. [/quote][/quote]

Ha Ha!  Definitely NOT a legacy or a big donor, in fact we didn't donate at all the past two years because we don't have a lot of extra money after tuition.  Interesting that you would think that.  I guess they really just believe in my daughter.[/quote]
