[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A school that is 49% FARMs, like WestPo, is going to get their top kids into UVA without submitting test scores. A student with inflated GPA and a 1300 can apply TO and get in. This is not happening at Langley. This is the difference. [/quote] correction - West Po is 51% Free/reduce lunch. There are a lot of AP options for the GPA grade boost and also has a strong pool of URMs which UVA is looking for (according to the CDS). I guarantee the EA round will see a lot more admits from the school as well. [/quote] Agreed. Not bashing on West Potomac. It is just something parents need to realize as they are choosing where to live. Living in Waynewood and sending your kid to West Potomac gives them a far better chance at UVA admissions than living in McLean and attending Langley. In other words, for a strong student, UVA is an easier admit out of a school at the bottom of FCPS high school ratings. [/quote]
