[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What? One kid from DCI gets into Yale a couple of years ago and you say, "Theyé sending kids to Yale"?

A kid from Eastern High School was accepted to Columbia two years ago.

I guess we need to say, "Wow.  Eastern must be great--they are sending kids to the Ivy League!"[/quote]

Multiple kids attending Ivy League Schools from DC, including 2 at yale now and a couple considering it this year, fwiw.
But it's not just Yale and Ivy League.  DCI admissions were amazing for 2021, 2022 and the current class.[/quote]

Too many overqualified kids applying to all the top schools and if you are an IB student who did really well, you stand out among the pack.  This is especially true if you go to a school that takes all.  Most of the kids who do well in IB in this country (small percentage compared to AP) are coming from private or test in programs.

If DCI has kids scoring high on IB, that is a big accomplishment. [/quote]

Also if these kids are fluent in another language, they also stand out from the pack. [/quote]
