[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this should absolutely play a role in where you ED. If there are 10 other kids from your school applying there, and 3 are legacies and 2 are recruited athletes, move on. You're highly unlikely to get in![/quote] At small privates, [b]kids should ask counselor how many others in class are applying[/b]. Beyond that, kids talk. This isn't hard to figure out, especially the recruited athlete part. I'm sure big schools are different.[/quote] The counselors would never divulge this sort of information at Sidwell. And to the question earlier about how parents know at Sidwell. I have no clue who is applying anywhere and don't know much about other kids at all. But that Brown incident last year was such drama (on many levels) that I have heard about it from multiple parents and and kids. (plus on DCUM). [/quote] Obviously, the counselor wouldn't divulge WHO is applying, just approximate number. Schools that don't do this (apparently, Sidwell and NCS) are idiotic. Could very well have avoided the Brown problem at Sidwell last year.[/quote]
