[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to ask your college guidance. I'm confused by what you mean by "feeder school". If you're truly at a feeder in the broad sense of the word (i.e. a top high school that performs extremely well across the board with elite colleges) then a 3.8 is undoubtedly a decent GPA and schools like Michigan will admit this kid. [/quote] Feeder school: sends at least 15% to ivy; or 25%+ to T20+T10lac; or 40%+ to T30. [/quote] OP yup about this. We’re in NYC. Kid is a junior and we don’t get access to naviance til next semester. I guess they don’t want people focused on this too early? Not sure. Maybe that’s normal. [/quote] Yes normal. NYC schools typically have the first parent counselor meeting in the Spring junior year. It may take several meetings to collect the information you needed. At ours you can only look at it at the counselor's office. Can't take picture or notes. [/quote] haha so similar. nyc private everyone is all "just relax" and "it's going to work out" and then it all happens really quickly, "need list Oct 1". I guess it's true that this can take a long time or just a few months. not sure that there's any point in spending all of high school looking at colleges, but when they say there's loads of time, there isn't.
