[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid graduated from WIS a few years ago.  DC got into several top LACs and desirable public universities like UCLA, Michigan and UNC with a ACT score of 31 and grades of 6's and 5's in most of the WIS classes (that would be the equivalent of B+ and Bs at other private high schools).  We think the rigor of the IB program/reputation of WIS/and personal interaction with admissions officers visiting the school (graduating class only has about 60 students) definitely helped DC with admissions.  Friends at comparable Big 3 schools needed a higher testing score and probably a better GPA to get into the same schools.  I should add that DC is not a minority or an athlete but did have some unique volunteering extracurriculars that could have helped with admissions. [/quote]

Too much identifying information here.[/quote]
If PP feels comfortable sharing that much info, what's it to you?  It's helpful for the rest of us![/quote]

It has to be said that admissions information for the student in that post (which is from 2020, so he graduated WIS in 2018 or earlier) is not at all helpful to you because that kid went to college pre-COVID. Everything is different now.[/quote]
