[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree, our [b]DDs from Sidwell had GPAs of 3.7-3.8 and got into HYPS[/b], almost no one has a 4.0. There is no weighting in the GPAs themselves. But clearly the admissions people at the top universities know exactly which courses are the most challenging track and even which teachers are super tough graders and take that into account, with input from the Sidwell college counselors. [/quote] This is still true nowadays at sidwell? [/quote] Yes, still true based on recent SCOIR data (as recent as the c/o 2024). Although it’s been said many times on this thread, it bears repeating. Very few students graduate from Sidwell with a 4.0 (0-2/year). Any student graduating from Sidwell with a cumulative >3.80 GPA is doing VERY well. If they test well and have strong letters of recommendations, every university is in play. [/quote]
