[quote=Anonymous]My kid is at an athlete at a Big3 private and knows several kids who are top athletes (not football, basketball, baseball or lacrosse) but outside the top 15% of the class and have been told by the Ivies that their grades aren't good enough. It's striking because they're REALLY good at their respective sports but they're not in the top 20 kids in the class (which is really hard to do) so the Ivies are passing. He has another friend who pretty much phoned it in and did almost zero work at Jackson Reed (by the student and his parents' own admission), got a 4.3 and was recruited to a top10 school. It really does not seem to be a good plan to try for elite university recruitment from a pressure cooker high school. [/quote]
