[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question about Chicago - my 10th grade DC is getting tons of emails and physical recruiting mailings from Chicago. Almost more than any other school. She is a good student but not competitive for Ivy League or Chicago. Why does Chicago send so much recruiting to kids who don’t meet their grades/scores? Is it to bulk up the number of applications so admissions rates et even more selective? [/quote] We have been noticing this for years now, first with anecdotes from people we know from NYC, LA, and SF privates. Our kid did not want to apply and we did not push knowing this. Felt it would not be in our DC’s best interest to go to school with so many students who have been scaffolded their entire lives. [/quote]
