[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for all the responses. Very interesting and maybe reassuring? As I mentioned above, DD is a happy and content kid (knock on wood). That is most important to me. I don't want her to stress out unnecessarily. I would be thrilled if DD could get into some of the "B-level" schools mentioned above, especially if it doesn't require an unnecessarily stressful junior year. Out of curiosity, has anyone noticed boys having an edge over girls based on demographics (i.e., more girls applying than boys)? Or is that not an issue when we are talking about selective colleges?[/quote] Boys have an edge at SLACs and, in many cases, if they intend to be humanities majors at universities. Girls have had an edge in STEM programs, though that may be shrinking. [/quote]
