[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This this board is anonymous I'll share that my 4.0 Deal kid in Algebra 2 last year was accepted to Sidwell, Potomac, St. Albans, GDS, Maret and the Scholar's program at St. Johns but not Walls.   :lol:   Quite a few of these schools had 9th grade acceptance rates around 5% last year (so we have since learned). 
He was waitlisted at Walls. He is now doing extremely well at one of the privates.  He's an outgoing kid,[b] travel athlete who is now on a varsity team[/b], national-level debater, and had 99% PARCC scores from 3rd grade on.  
His Walls interview was literally 90 seconds long last year.   :x [/quote]

I hope you this just screams $$$$$. [/quote]

Huh?  there are plenty of travel athletes around here who are not wealthy.  Every program has scholarships dollars.  I have coworkers with incomes of under $50K who have kids who play travel sports.

Anyway, completely besides the point as Walls did not ask anything about my kid.  They had no idea if he was an athlete or not. [/quote]
