[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it's really prestigious and in demand, a lot more kids would apply, then the school would have plenty of applicants with high stat + all the other stuff to choose from.
Looks like it's not the case.

The USMA has a 9% acceptance rate. The USNA has a 9.1% acceptance rate. The USAA has a 13.4% acceptance rate. I’m guessing your kid could not get in. [/quote]

9% acceptance rate among 1300 SAT average applicant pool

Oh my kid got 1540 SAT and is very healthy, but doesn't want military lifestyle.
Rather go to GMU [/quote]

LOL. Your kid is a moron. Both for the GMU choice and the 1540, which you meant as a flex but for those of us in the 1% is not quite embarrassing but nothing we’d share voluntarily. [/quote]

oh yea so my kid didn't go to GMU. However if those were the only two options, rather go to GMU.
Military style is simply not it for my kid and probably for most kids.
