[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm also curious about the timeline. Will Walls determine a GPA cutoff (for this year) and then review recommendation letters, or will they review the recommendation letters of ALL applicants before ranking for interviews?[/quote] At the open house they said that they will the top scores considering GPA + recommendation letters, and those kids get interviews. I think they said GPA counts for up to 5 points (so 4.0 = 5 points) and so do the recs. So they add up the two scores and put everyone in order starting with 10.0, and at some point they draw a line below the max number of kids they are going to interview. I got the impression that the recommendation "letter" is more of a multiple choice in which teachers rate the kids on various factors via an online survey, so it should be fairly easy to "score" the letters.
