[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, your kid will make the cut for serious consideration to any school in the country. By he will be in the same boat as 20,000+ kids with the same stats and EC's. Understand, these schools only have so many seats for the applicant pool, hence the low single digit admit rate. Pick a good ED, pick a few EA's, make sure there are some actual safties your kid likes and would be thrilled to attend.[/quote] Why are there so many more kids in the US now with high stats (high GPA plus SAT/ACT)? Why is it more competitive versus five years ago, say?[/quote] Folks have more info. about the college application process and the costs and benefits of attending the most selective schools.[/quote] Also, super-scoring, grade inflation, SAT renorming, easier questions, larger population. Possibly also Asian immigration, but that counterbalances a decline in overall student quality.[/quote]
