[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to clarify if it is ED or RD you are talking about for these schools. Makes a difference with necessary GPA.[/quote]

No, the scoir data shared is for all admissions ED plus RD combined)  [/quote]

That's right, but for many of the schools cited, very few NCS girls apply ED, and that skews things. The fact that a large percentage of the class is EDing only to the same eight to ten schools is a whole different topic, but if no one or only one or two students from NCS (or any other school) applies ED to the Emory, Northwestern, Vanderbilt, Rice, etc. group of schools, it's hard to know definitively what the trend is.  I think there is a general understanding that your odds are improved in those rounds, but most students don't strategize that way, and that's a choice. So you have a bunch of apps in RD, and only the tippy top students are successful. [/quote]

I don't think this is true--there were an bunch of girls (under 3.9) who tried to ED to Vandy and Nowthwestern last year and none got in.  [/quote]

Vandy and Northwestern are way harder admits these days than Emory and Wash U.  Their ED acceptance rate half or less than Emory/WashU.  Literally no student from any of the bigger Baltimore private schools got in Vandy last year ED1 (including the valedictorian from one of the more well regarded) while maybe half a dozen or more did just one year earlier.[/quote]
