[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a former NMSF myself, I can’t figure out for the life of me why anyone cares about this.[/quote] Same. It varies from class to class and is not a predictor of college admissions or success later in life. Knowing that a sidwell parent is likely posting this stuff is a complete deterrent from the school, though! [/quote] This is not difficult. The reason you care about this as a teen is that you list national (and other) prizes and awards on college applications. Maybe you don't care. You have no way of knowing whether the ad committee as SLAC xyz cares a lot, but you do know that you want to attend SLAC xyz and it has a 10% admission rate. [/quote]
