I think it’s a list of where kids from APS matriculated. It isn’t a ranking. [/quote]

There's absolutely no way that VCU rejected that many APS students - something's off.  [/quote]

I beg to differ, it was really interesting last year to see DD’s friends getting accepted or rejected from certain schools. If schools thought your GPA was way too high, they were not going to accept you - yield protection. Also, unfortunately, I heard of a handful of kids getting rejected due to AI detected essays.

In an era when the higher education landscape is bizarre & changing, beware of anybody claiming absolutes.

These days you can’t even claim that no Ivy League presidents are plagiarists, no freshman quarterbacks are millionaires, a fake claim that you’re a rowing prodigy can’t you in an elite college, and no women’s sports champions have a schlong. Since we’ve all gotten used to those realities, is anybody going to be surprised if a public college does a little yield protection?[/quote]
