[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s the word on the new AD in terms of who he favors. The last 2 coached lax and soccer so it was no surprise who had an edge in admissions. The new guy is not a coach so I’m hoping some reasonableness returns to the admissions equation??[/quote] Define "reasonableness". His agenda seems to be one of "diversity" [/quote] +1. He talks a good game, but in the end, most admits are siblings, legacies (a lock for admission) and families with hooks/ connections of some sort.[/quote] THIS is TRUTH[/quote] I wholeheartedly agree. My son had all A’s on his report card from another boys schools with a ranked one below Albans in Dc. He plays a sport, chess, competed in robotics and was denied. We have no connection or hook and was foolish to believe he had a chance based on merit. [/quote] It was probably his recommendations. Have you had any issues with the current school? [/quote]
