[quote=Anonymous]I appreciate the data. I think it would be a wake up call for a lot of people who aren’t paying attention. (Maybe not this board.) I graduated from a high school in upstate ny in the 90s and it was absolutely the case that the top kids (top 25-30 out of 250) in the class got into hpy, ivies, Stanford, top LACs. And the top kids took 5-7 APs, max. It was just a normal suburban high school with bright kids. The smartest kids got into Harvard and Stanford but the next rung down still ended up at Williams, penn, Cornell, etc. Times have really changed. In a way, I find it a relief that the top schools are out of reach financially and admissions wise for my own kids. We won’t even bother playing the game. [/quote]
