[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"98% top 10% of their class" Most private schools don't calculate GPA or class rank for colleges so those students are not included in this statistic. Most UChicago kids from my kids private school are definitely not top 10%. We have cum laude and those kids rarely go to UChicago.[/quote] The private my oldest child attended had 6 go to Chicago last year and none were top 20% in the class.[b] It's a choice for kids who want prestige but aren't top students.[/b] [/quote] Slightly different at our private, it is not where the top 10% go, but there are some top 20% who are risk averse to taking their chances in RD and EDII to UChicago after a deferral in REA ED. These are the kids most likely to regret it when they see where others get in RD. [/quote]
