[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does TJ not have a scatterplot? I found ours to be accurate.

As for AO’s not being truthful, they can’t tell the whole truth. I worked in law school admissions (different beast I know) and there were tons of questions like this we could not answer directly or completely honestly, especially back in the days of AA post Grutter decision. [/quote]
People claimed there was a GPA over which you get accepted and the AOs are lying when they say they don't just look at GPAs. Someone posted that their kid defies this "rule." So DCUM is wrong again.

Even if there is no rule or cutoff, trends can still be observed and can inform the application process for applicants. [/quote]
Would your TJ student propose that a trend can be based on a handful if unverified pieces posts on an anonymous message board? No, they'd get an F if they tried to do that. We have Naviance and the counseling office for verified information.

Crowdsourcing information works well for identifying fairly reliable trends.[/quote]
