I am not looking for an IVY admit (at all) but I'm getting freaked out by the schools that girls outside of the above categories are attending. I won't name names but they're in instagram.
Tell it to my straight. A/a- student.
Did anyone apply their daughter from NCS this year? Where are we looking at?
You are completely insane. I don’t even think you are an NCS parent because if you were you would know that more than 25 girls are going to top schools. Troll post.

Schools which ZERO NCS are attending girls next year:
Duke
Hopkins
Northwestern
Vanderbilt
Wash U
Rice
Notre Dame
Emory
Cal
UVA
USC
Tufts
Carnegie Mellon
MIT
You have the Ivies and Stanford (all girls are hooked but one Ivy and one Stanford) and then the U Chicago admits.
One to UCLA, one to Michigan
That's it for top 40 admits for the class.
I swear, I am not caught up in prestige but this is a bit extreme.
That is surprising. What about Amherst, Williams, Bowdoin, Pomona, Swarthmore and other top SLACs?
None to Amherst, Williams, Bowdoin, or Swarthmore.
One to Pomona.

So what level college would you be okay with? Top 50? Top 100?
Plenty of NCS girls going to schools over 100 this year.
You are staying you'd be fine with this?
