[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How difficult is it to get into Banneker? Are there GPA or PARC score requirements?[/quote] There is a GPA requirement of 3.5. It’s tough to get in. I know kids who were not accepted.[/quote] DD had a 3.3 and is in the freshman class. 2.5 was the cutoff for consideration last year. Admissions is more holistic. That said, I had a really good feeling during the interview that she was deemed a good fit.[/quote] Wow, that is a really low cut off.[/quote] I don't know that anyone is getting in with a 2.7, but the cutoff was a 2.5. It was a bonus for families like ours as DD's previously school was known for grade deflation. She transferred in 8th grade and had a 4.0 but wasn't working nearly as hard as she did for the 3.3 in 7th. She was eliminated by our 2nd choice (SWW) as a result.[/quote]
