[quote=Anonymous]^ I think what PP is getting at is that you have repeated "all 5s on his APs", but have avoided saying how many APs. Since there is not much of a delta between his weighted and unweighted GPAs, it looks like he took 2-3 at most. Why not just say how many? Your kid is in, and that's great. The wording seems deliberately chosen to imply a high number, but the stats don't support that. I think PP is suggesting that Dean J is constantly claiming breadth of rigor is important and that admitted students take the most rigorous classes across the board, and in this case that may not be true. FWIW, I know several kids who got into UVA this year and definitely did not have the most rigorous schedules or the highest GPAs, so I have already concluded that there are obvious exceptions to claims made by UVA admissions.[/quote]
