[quote=Anonymous]The Blair kids who get into the top schools have more than just good grades and leadership roles on school teams. They also have competed and won in regional, national and international competitions in STEM as well as athletics, music, ice skating, etc. They all stand out in some way. I suggest that your DD apply to more schools such as Berkeley, CMU and Georgia Tech which are all very strong in computer science along with UMD which is a safety and where she may get scholarship money. Girls do have an advantage over guys in tech because there are fewer of them but it is certainly not a large advantage. Just know that all of these students such as your daughter do very well wherever they go to university and have many wonderful options when they graduate.[/quote]
