[quote=Anonymous]NP. I think OP is more likely to be correct when describing highly selective publics not as known for holistic evaluation. It’s probably the most applicable to top UCs since that system is test blind. If your gpa is below certain cut-offs the guidance counselor can very confidently tell you it’s futile to apply. It’s a problem for those CA residents who prefer rigorous private high schools with teachers who still give out large numbers of Bs, even to high-scoring, hard-working kids. Our kid was told that a single digit acceptance rate private was a safety while all the top UCs were reaches. Test blind is stupid. [/quote]
