[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've heard it said that it might be easier to get in from a school where fewer students are applying to top schools. Is that true? [/quote] Probably. Although the regional admissions folks have a pretty good idea about the level of rigor in each school, and they may adjust for that when looking at your kid's application. A good way to compensate for this is to take lots of APs and do well on the AP tests, so that the colleges don't just think that straight As at Podunk High is a fluke of easy grading.[/quote]
