[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think PP is just talking about a counselor giving a student a reality check. Telling a kid their profile isn't competitive based on the info they have about past years isn't gate keeping.[/quote]

They’re talking about checking boxes and noting rigor of program. If my kid’s decides to apply after meeting with the counselor,  does his  14 AP transcript not even get checked and immediately get tossed aside? That would be good to know. [/quote]

You have to talk to the counselor about that. She of he checks off the boxes, mails the claw profile and writes letter of recommendation to the VA schools. She’s also the gatekeeper for the teacher’s letters of recommendation. If you are insisting that your B student apply to UVA she’s not homing yo be pleased do what’s the point if it. And she so g be checking the  most rigorous box. These schools say they don’t rank but the school profile lets the admissions office decipher within just a minute where your student is in the class. And of course the college counselor knows rank. They are public employees and have reputations to uphold. They know it takes top 6 percent to get into UVA so why would they encourage a 3.0 student to apply? You’re going to be rerouted to more suitable colleges in the Commonweslth. Can you force it? Probably but the counselor and teachers will be rolling their eyes behind their backs.[/quote]
