[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a senior and know many of their peers/classmates. What I have seen- Kids who take real rigor have better college results even if they have a few Bs — although those B’s should be in very hard advanced courses. Alternatively, I have also seen kids get into very selective schools with less than sterling records. If you are one of these kids you need something else - legacy, back door entrance, first gen/URM, feeder, etc. I have seen over and over students getting into very selective colleges who are not competitive at that level. A lot goes on behind closed doors. [/quote] I would agree with this. I have a kid who had a few Bs sprinkled throughout transcript (mostly in earlier years), who took very hard classes and got into a very hard to get into school.[/quote]
