[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter graduated from NCS recently. 1. Obviously not all 3.0 are the same. A 3.0 from NCS with very rigorous classes will much do better than a 3.0 with easier classes, all other things being equal, such as ECs, legacy, recruited athletes, etc. 2. I had another child at Sidwell and IME, the college placement between NCS/STA and Sidwell (above the same number of kids) was about the same. 3. The homework between NCS and Sidwell was the same(I suspect also similar to other schools.) 4. I do think that the competitive nature at NCS does effect the relationships at NCS compare to Sidwell. My NCS child had the time of her life at NCS., but not for everyone.[/quote] Ok let's assume the OP's child had mostly B's, a couple of C's and a couple of A's with a less rigorous classload. Let's even say she wasn't good at sports and didn't do a lot extracurricularly. Is it unfair to expect a Skidmore/Denison/BU coming from NCS?[/quote]
