[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former NCS parent here and I can't stress the importance of weighing the rigor of the curriculum your daughter selects. My daughter was a B student with great standardized test scores, was right below the NMSF cut off and did great on SATs and ACTs. She took the very rigorous courses - AP Chem in 11th, AP Physics C in 12th, honors math 9-11 and AP BC in 12th (did not get to HLAVC), AP US and AP Language in 11th grade etc. She ended up at Notre Dame with other acceptances at great places like Haverford, William & Mary etc. Her peers who took "easier" APs like AP Statistics, AP Bio, AP and less rigorous courses in general - art over engineering, regular math etc. ended up at places like Virginia Tech, Syracuse, UM College Park. [/quote] Ugh all that money at NCS with that reputation for College Park?[/quote]
