[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is the middle of the class doing this year re:  college admissions?[/quote]

Yes.  I'd also like to know the basic academic profile of middle of the class students.  For example: Their GPA range, test scores, ECs, and if they were placed in a lower math track from 9th grade on.  [/quote]

Ah, the Easter Bunny brought sarcasm this morning!  On one level, of course it is silly to parse this stuff when only the families and college counselor really know the circumstances of any given student's college results.  On another level, people care about college acceptances and it's a relatively harmless past time to chew over for a couple of weeks in the fall and spring each year. I think most people understand that the admissions landscape has changed;  that there are lots of great schools; that it's about picking the right college for the individual kid; and that it's the kids' achievements, not the high school, that matters.  But it's still entertaining to hear this stuff (or we wouldn't red Hesse threads).[/quote]

Actually, no sarcasm was intended.  I'd really like to know the academic profile of a middle of the class STA senior.  And don't tell me to go have a chat with the school's college counselor.  I'm well aware that the admissions landscape has changed.  Blah, blah, blah.
