[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC is also eagerly awaiting decision 12/16. Public non-feeder in the DMV. As with all public school candidates, 4.0 UW. Only 9APs, better test scores (submitted). Good ECs depending on what they are looking for. It's a very strong first choice - way ahead of second choice on DC's wish list, but we are feeling pessimistic.[/quote] Congrats! Btw, Swarthmore said at recent info session that they aren’t looking for people to take all the APs, kind of encouraging applicants not to feel pressured to take so many. I personally think 9 is a good and healthy number for a DMV public where you can spread them out over 3-4 years. I think they cited the study that showed after 5 APs, there’s no real difference in preparation. So I took it mean that they’re aren’t encouraging or rewarding applicants who are taking like a dozen or more APs. [/quote]
