[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try being an applicant from a "big 3" private where the schools grade deflate, don't have APs, don't rank the class, and don't have traditional "weighted" GPAs. These schools have relied the notion that colleges know who they are and respect their rigor. No longer. Result: plenty of high achievers who are getting sub-par results.[/quote] Seeing as more of them with lower UW and SATs got in to the scea school that my top stats kid got rejected from, I really don't feel bad for them. The top 3 comes w/ name recognition. They are competing against each other, for an inordinate number of slots as it is. They are not competing against my public school kid (in a rigorous magnet).[/quote]
