[quote=Anonymous][quote]Also need to take into account how difficult the course load is for these kids: My DD got into Princeton, Harvard (double legacy there), several top SLACs, Wash U despite a number of Bs at a big 3 school without athletic recruiting or any "hooks", but was in the absolute most intensive track offered in terms of course selection (BC calc as junior, AP Physics as junior, etc). If the Bs had been in the less intensive math or science classes I doubt she would have gotten into those schools. And test scores/extracurriculars and essays/recs clearly also make a difference to differentiate between these kids. [/quote] I wonder how non-math and science kids can take the "most intensive" course load.[/quote]
