[quote=Anonymous]Parent of a 2023 HS graduate from a public "W" high school known for grade inflation. When DC applied to colleges, they had 3 semester B's all from junior year - two in AP Spanish (the year prior of all online learning did a number on their language skills) and one in AP BC calculus (horrible teacher although other kids got As so not blaming the teacher). DC had taken the highest rigor in their classes and had a 36 ACT, average ECs (varsity sport team captain but wasn't being recruited, some clubs and volunteering). DC was rejected from Penn (ED) and accepted at Wash U (ED2). We suspect the Bs knocked out DC from consideration at most ivies (except Cornell) and would have been okay for colleges like Wash U and Rice. [/quote]
