[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For STEM kid who is motivated and capable of being in big school, then public schools may be better than a Big 3 private. College counselors told us point blank that certain STEM schools ( CalTech, MIT) were looking for kids who at a minimum took numerous science APs ( physics, chem, bio and computer science) and competed in the Intel ISEF ( not necessarily winning, but at least competing). I asked where these students were since they are not at our Big 3, and I was told they are in the public schools. [/quote] They know that. How many STEM major college applicants are there at a social humanities place like GDS anyhow? 10%? 15%?[/quote]
