[quote=Anonymous]Surprised at how average my private school, 3.8W, 1260, varsity athlete, part time job, 6 AP, white DD was, at least compared to her peers in the DMV. Then surprised that she ended up almost exactly where her school counselor predicted, at a very good, T100 school. I held out hope that she would somehow get into T20, in the face of facts to the contrary. Unsurprised that she handled herself admirably throughout and is excited to go to college. Surprised at parents who are stressing over the cost of the SLAC their DC wants to attend. Surprised at how some parents try to over-sell why their child is going to a school that is not T50.
