[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of lower tier kids get in every year. It's based on the whims of the AOs that year and not based on merit.[/quote] +1 Not whims though. FGLI or connected kids. In the DMV, mostly the latter. Just look at magnet school admits vs. private. The latter has tiny numbers of National Merit Finalists and US Presidential Scholar Candidates, yet far more of those kids get into Ivies.[/quote] The one magnet kid I know who got in definitedly used a private college counselor. Impressive kid, packaged just so.[/quote] When I certain national awards listed, that's a tell the student's parents hired a counselor. Now AOs must know this too, they just don't care.[/quote]
