[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's terrible people say rude things. Your daughter sounds amazing. Congrats on her acceptances![/quote] I sincerely doubt that anyone says what OP is claiming, and I’ve been active in both private and public high schools. No one says that[/quote] Sure they say that. Maybe not as much to their face. Kid in my high school got accepted to an Ivy, was ranked somewhere around 5 in the class. No one else in the class attended an Ivy or anything close.[/quote] When my daughter was applying to colleges we used to go over the Naviance graphs. The one ivy acceptance (Yale) in my kids school in the previous 3-4 years was from a kid of African immigrants. Had excellent grades (very close to a 4.0 UW) but a 1090 on the SAT (before TO). All of the other kids with a 4.0 and 1500+ SAT scores were rejected. [/quote]
