[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does some of this depend on the LOR from the college counselor at the private school? Can’t they sort of indicate, consciously or not, who the better student is?[/quote] Yeah, and the 3.9 kid is going to get those recs. The teacher isn't going to say "this kid got all As in English classes but they're really pretty mediocre whereas this A minus student is best of my career." Doesn't work like that. [/quote] Unless there was some sort of hardship that the A minus kid had. And aren’t some schools actually looking for the kids who are slightly less than perfect (it’s good to experience some failure in life so they don’t fall apart when they see a C on an exam or paper)?[/quote] No there are not schools looking for less than perfect kids. At least in top schools.[/quote]
