[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC has a 3.75 uw, 1500+, with near-maximum rigor at a top private feeder. High impact ECs and excellent writing. They're applying to health & society/public health and adjacent majors as a non-pre-med. Aiming for a T20 (non-HYPSM) -- do they have good chances? All anecdotes/feedback/input is appreciated![/quote]
Is your child top 15-20% in school? Private feeder to which colleges?[/quote]

OP here; yes, likely top 20% (since class rank factors in rigor). Feeder to all T20s[/quote]

Is this a max 4.0 school or is there a weighted GPA? Need more info than just 1500+ and info on ECs[/quote]

Max 4.0 (which nobody ever achieves at DC’s private), 1530, ECs include high impact work/fundraising at public health nonprofits, healthcare policy, projects at hospitals, independent project about healthcare access[/quote]

You're really going to have to ask your own college counseling and look at your school's data.  That all sounds great but at the school my kids attend (top DC private, one graduated, second a junior) all that is negated by the 3.7.  You would think not but the line for a top20 admission is really high despite there not being any 4.0 graduates but it really is except for Chicago and Michigan. [/quote]
