[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]what is naviance?[/quote] [b]It's a great tool[/b] that helps you understand where other students from your school have gotten into college over a five year period and what their grades and test scores were. [b] Instead of having to rely on the metrics you see online, it gives you concrete information that helps students[/b] make decisions about where to apply. If you listen to most people applying to top colleges you would believe your child needs to have a 4.0 or higher to even be considered but the strong curriculum at the top DC area privates means that your child could have a B+ average and still get into great schools. It has been a huge help for us with a daughter at Holton in learning where she stands a chance and where it's a reach. In several cases we were pleasantly surprised about great schools that were attainable.[/quote] Really, it [i]helps[/i] students . What is the goal of education ? What is the cost of enabling parents wanting what is " attainable" ? certain qualities in young people have already become nearly exstinct, and their parents still want more, more and more success.[/quote]
