[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a s/o of the Duke vs Northwestern post below. Here is what I've noticed at our selective NYC public: --Top 10% or high stats + hook: HYP + Columbia + Penn (Wharton, VIPER or Engineering) . --High stats, missing national level ECs or hook: Duke, Georgetown, Northwestern, Brown, Penn --High stats + normal ECs OR some flaw on their record (like a bad grade or two) - Cornell, Chicago, JHU - these kids do very well with ED to the latter two. --Mid to lower stats + no hook - public school or T50 possibly with merit. Most parents won't pay full for that level. S and M are rare (most commonly high stats URM); no one gets into Dart or Vandy, for whatever reason Curious if this is similar to other selective/feeder schools.[/quote] This post is really wild, but anyway most kids don’t fall into your categories at my kids school. Top 10%/high stats, national or international EC’s and NO hook.[/quote]
