[quote=Anonymous]I think it is hard to just go on grades without considering the relative grade inflation at the school and the type of classes a student takes. My experience is with Sidwell, which certainly sends many A/B students to the Ivies, but only where those students have taken a rigorous course load. The students with lighter course loads --regardless of grades -- tend not to make it to that level of school. Then there are students who get into top colleges for other intangible reasons -- special talents, wealth.[/quote]
