[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid graduated from WIS a few years ago. DC got into several top LACs and desirable public universities like UCLA, Michigan and UNC with a ACT score of 31 and grades of 6's and 5's in most of the WIS classes (that would be the equivalent of B+ and Bs at other private high schools). We think the rigor of the IB program/reputation of WIS/and personal interaction with admissions officers visiting the school (graduating class only has about 60 students) definitely helped DC with admissions. Friends at comparable Big 3 schools needed a higher testing score and probably a better GPA to get into the same schools. I should add that DC is not a minority or an athlete but did have some unique volunteering extracurriculars that could have helped with admissions. [/quote] Michigan likes IB. Michigan's top feeders for in-state include several public IB schools.[/quote]
