[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cornell loves public school kids. Applied from both public and private. Public school kid less impressive academically at Jackson Reed vs. my private school kid. Cornell took the JR one Potomac.  This happens too often. [/quote]

Cornell took a lot of JR kids this year.

It will be interesting to see how the JR kids do in general at college (not specifically this cohort but the grade at large). there are some true rockstars but also lots of kids who got straight As for not doing much of anything. they were the benefactors of Covid grading (no grades given less than a B for kids who turned in anything during those 18 months) and those standards have not really returned to normal since. grades remain crazily inflated.  This mostly just hurts the high achievers at JR because the pool of top students is diluted with kids who don't belong there. It will be interesting to see if their performance at college impacts future admissions.

This is such a lie. Why do people keep continuing this lie about JR. During COVID, you couldn’t get less than a D when turning things in. Not a B.
