[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]High stat DC also swimming in rejections.[/quote] High sats are not unique. Grade inflation, test prep, tutoring etc. have made it so parents and kids think they are smarter and more special than they actually are. The % of really smart kids hasn’t changed in the last 30 years. The number of parents and kids who think they fall into that bucket has increased astronomically.[/quote] +1 I would say AAP kids/parents (FCPS) especially, are convinced that their kids will get into any college they want. AAP is such a crock of BS, it's too bad these parents don't realize that it means nothing at all.[/quote] As a parent of two in HS, I've tried explaining that very thing on multiple occasions in the FCPS thread. The only "leg up" may be in math. Otherwise in HS most kids start out in the same core subjects.[/quote]
