[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]35 ACT and 3.7 UW GPA from a strong Boston private, average ECs, full pay girl - overshot ED, then did not get into any T 50 schools. Ended up at St Andrews[/quote] I am guessing counselor recommendation went wrong. Did you listen to counselor’s advice on ED school? If you insisted on overshooting, the counselor cannot support you on the recommendation. The consequence is that the same recommendation letter is sent to your ED school and RD schools. The 3.7 gpa at a rigorous school always guarantees a T50, sometimes a T20, absent grade inflation and when supported by counselor.[/quote]
