[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Yale part is more true than the jail part.

This is for the class of 2016: http://www.wilsonhs.org/ourpages/auto/2011/4/15/39942607/Wilsonprofile2016-17webreduced.pdf

Mind you, this is where they actually went. Kids get into schools hoping for financial aid packages that may not work out, or they get a full ride to a less prestigious school and take it (smart move).[/quote]

67 seniors with straight As? Jesus.[/quote]

67 seniors with straight As....but only about 12 to 14 seniors went to elite schools (Ivy + UNC, Berkely, Stanford, G'town and similar)

So going to Wilson to earn higher grades doesn't directly translate into elite school acceptance.  There must be more[/quote]

it's not 67 seniors with straigh A's - its 67 seniors with more than a 4.0.  If you are taking AP classes and your GPA will always read higher. It does not mean they all 67 had straight A's.  Someone posted earlier for 2015 and 2016 9 Wilson students enrolled in Ivy League schools (MIT+ Stanford) this [/b]does not[b] include other schools like G'town. Michigan etc. As stated earlier - use Naviance to see the real stats.

As stated earlier, the "real" stats on Naviance rely heavily on self-reporting on the part of students.

Get that. But then you need to throw outthe MOCO stats too. Don't get the hate for Wilson. Kids go to Ivies from Wilson. My kid is one. Hate how folks on this thread want to diminish the accomplishments of the top students at Wilson.  [/quote]
