[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Colleges know the academic rigor involved at both schools, so getting less than a 3.9 may not be a dealbreaker. What it really comes down to is whether your kid prefers a progressive approach or a traditional one.[/quote] Anyone with experience in prep schools knows this isn't true. Expectations are that you still maintain a 3.9+ GPA. These schools are challenging, but there are definitely kids in the top 2 deciles that maintain a 3.9+ average. Elite universities select unhooked applicants almost-exclusively from this tier. [b]The 3.7 Sidwell kid is not getting in a T20.[/b][/quote] False. I have 2 so ask me how I know. (and no hooks)[/quote]
