[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A previous year ~ DD was waitlisted at UVA. If the HS counselor had shared *some* information re: rigor and checking the boxes, would that have mattered? Will never know of course. [/quote] Every year your high school counselor sends a profile of that year’s high school class. That profile lists the AP courses offered and the percent of the students taking those courses. Even if a school says “it doesn’t rank “ it takes sn admissions reader ten seconds to figure out where your child ranks vis-a-vis their classmates and in terms of rigorous courses offers and taken. And yes the counselors still do signal if your child has taken tge “most rigorous” “very rigorous” courses. Your counselor doesn’t want you to know this.[/quote]
