[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m in NY and one of my kids is at Stuy  Stuy always does pretty well w college stuff (there’s always some grumbling that “my kid would be top of class at some other school” but ..the pool does well).

This year was exceptionally good.

I think this is the lie of TO in admissions and grade inflation at other high schools. Colleges don’t trust it - anymore.  I think they did for a few years, but the worm has turned. [/quote]

DC private unhooked kid, Ivy admit this year---as well as 3 other T10s and T20s.

I think the same thing.  Tired of TO and grade inflation--were 'test aware', i.e, high scores mattered at T10s, and so did known rigor of the HS.  T[/quote]

My kid did that unhooked last year—ivy and 3 other T10s,got more admits in the T20, but they were the only kid to do it in the three local top privates . Not a single unhooked from those 3 private school had that level of success in 2021 and 2022, more like one T10 for a few of the top kids only and rest WL. It used to be 2-3 unhooked a year would have success at multiple T10, up through 2019, with another handful getting in to one T10 (ED or Rd) without multiple T10 admits.  It does appear as though this yr privates are edging back to pre-TO success for unhookeds. [/quote]
