[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school forced us into the system or no counseling! I find it shameful and think its used as a tool to dissuade students from their dreams; while helping the purported stats of college acceptance from the office. Clearly its not accurate and extracurruculars, uniqueness, time spent outside of school, relevance to the cohort and often academic pathways demonstrating interest in a program. Thats not for one second what Maia can assess for any student and nobody should put this inhibiting bias on any student[/quote] That’s fine, but it’s still helpful to know that at a school my kid was interested in, they haven’t taken a single kid with a gpa below a certain number. So now I know the gpa minimum, no matter the special extra curriculars. The part of the scattergram where there are accept/reject/deferral, thats the gpa you can surmise the extras matter. But there’s still a lot to learn from the top and bottom of the scattergram, where no letter of recommendation is going to tip the scales [/quote]
