[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. Weighted GPAs are worthless

2. High unweighted GPAs are not going to get you anywhere in the top 25 without a very rigorous course load with 4 years of every academic subject including foreign language.

3. Any college with a 25% or less acceptance rate is a lottery for kids with nearly perfect stats

4. Naviance does not account for recruits, legacies, courseload, first gen status, full pay status, etc.

5. It’s a tool, not a crystal ball. [/quote]

Does AP Psych (after APUSH, AP Gov, and AP World) count as a decent 4th social studies/social science course?  I'm not sure if the top schools want a fourth year of history or simply a 4th social studies course.  Guidance counselor is not giving any advice in this area.  I know of seniors who sign up for 4 arts classes (not even the most rigorous ones) and are disappointed when they don't get into their dream schools.  Why do guidance counselors let capable students sign up for idiotic senior year schedules?[/quote]

Nope.  AP Psych, AP World and not as respected as AP Euro. It depends on your kids school[/quote]
