[quote=Anonymous]OP can't imagine why everyone doesn't go to Northwestern or Cornell? I'm assuming OP is a private school parent where UVA is the lowest ranked school anyone attends? My kids go to a public HS that typically ranks in the top 5 in the state. About 12 to 15% of the class applies to and gets in to UVA. About 10% of the class may go to a school that's "better" than UVA. Everyone else goes to a school that is considered to be not as good as UVA. It's actually a reach school for some pretty good students who are on track to be successful adults. My kids can't get in to UVA, Northwestern or Cornell and I've decided to let them live under my roof anyway. [/quote]
