[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sidwell asks kids for a list of possible schools, then plugs them inti a Naviance type grid based on GPA and scores. For our recent grad it was very accurate and convinced him to think harder about real safeties. As for Michigan and Tufts, they are immensely popular, and Michigan at least is seen as reach/realistic/safety depending on the student. [/quote] The Naviance grid information is not complete because it's based only on scores and GPA, thus it's not always accurate. We have 2 recent Sidwell grads for whom the grid prediction was completely wrong. They were both accepted at their first choice school, which Naviance and their counselor said they would never get into. [/quote]
