[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My nephew didn’t take AP Bio or AP Chem at TJ. Didn’t take the AP exams for either of those subjects - they only took the exams for the AP classes enrolled in. Accepted to all HYPSM. [/quote]

And then there's the random poster about a rainbow unicorn case of a presumably unhooked kid with zero science APs who gets accepted to [b]ALL[/b] HYPSM ...  :lol:  and we're left to imagine that the nephew is likely in his 50s today![/quote]

It's the same at Stuy in NYC. Unhooked "high stats" kids are a dime a dozen. Colleges pick based unhooked students random or arbitrary factors (quirky sport/instrument) or "wow!" life stories. At the academic level of HYPSM, AP just isn't *interesting* or impressive. They know that clever kids can fake ther through the easy multiple choice heavily curved exams [/quote]

You really have zero clue about how they do admissions screening.  Please don't come to this particular forum of DCUM and think you can make those sorts of statements and be believed.  The parents on this forum are all capable of being highly paid college consultants because we know this space better than most.  [/quote]
