[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Above a certain GPA/SAT/ACT Case Western is a safety at the 2 high schools I'm familiar with - you can see it very clearly on the Naviance scattergram. Look at your school's Naviance instagrams and you'll see the same pattern for other schools.[/quote] In my view, that makes it a match. What is obvious on the static Naviance scattergram may be creeping to the right and up a bit each year.[/quote] Well, in that case neither of my kids ever applied to a "safety," because the schools they used as their "safeties" were UVA, W&M, CWU, Wisconsin. Their stats put in them in the part of the Naviance scattergram where everyone had been admitted to those schools. They had no desire to go to a school with a 70% acceptance rate and we weren't going to pay for that, so what's the point of applying to a school like that for a kid who needs more of a challenge? What schools are good safeties for the 4.0/1560+ kid?[/quote]
