[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would def opt for 4 APs over 5 in one year and spend the extra time on an interesting ECs. My kids are in MCPS though and I acknowledge that we don’t have that same UVA admissions pressure that tortures Nova kids. Admissions so far this year at private colleges (largely ED) look really good at our high school. Preliminary data shows UMD admits were way down. I think we’re seeing a continuing thread of state flagships and similar becoming increasingly competitive. I’m guessing the sub top 20 private colleges may be becoming even more interested in full pay DMV kids in anticipation of the cliff. [/quote] Let me fix this for you, replace “ful pay DMV kids” with “full pay international,” because need blind schools, which is all of the T20, aren’t allowed to consider full pay status for domestic kids, but are allowed to for international students. Can we put the cliff nonsense to bed? After several years, the decrease will be a total of 15 percent. [/quote]
