[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WITHOUT A HOOK, landed at public schools (UVA, UMich, California schools) and could not really break through to the T-20 coming from MCPS....is there just too much competition at these public schools and do privates have better placement? This is just my observation--have you seen the same?[/quote] No. But even my post is anecdata. I mean at our public magnet school, every kid is high stat. I know kids that got into places like [b]CMU, MIT, UT@Austin, Rice, UCLA but not really Harvard. So sucks majorly for them. Without a hook, you don't land anywhere. Especially if Asian-American. [/b] [/quote] These are all top schools - so doesn't suck at all for them. My Asian-American DC goes to UCLA and it was their top choice. Amazing school which BTW is T20. [/quote]
