[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pomona: 420 freshman 156 submitted an SAT 39 scored above 1550, or 9% Amherst: 485 freshman 192 submitted an SAT score 48 scored above 1540, or 9.8% They look pretty similar. [/quote] So my DC who comfortably scored 1560 without a tutor may be too high-performing (test score wise anyway) for Pomona and Amherst, and not high-performing enough for schools like Northwest, Brown, Penn, Duke. What schools are in between those? [/quote] Don’t get too full of yourself. Those kids would eat your little grinder as a snack.[/quote] "Too high-performing?" My 36 ACT kid is amused by this discussion. Many peers at Amherst have equally high stats. There is a high percentage of FGLI students who have lower stats, and many of the athletes, however an unhooked kid does not fall into either of those two buckets. Admissions for those kids is fiercely competitive. [/quote]
