It should be in the senior edition of Rank n' File.

Undoubtedly, some. I haven't seen the Class of 2018 breakdown, but 84% of the Class of 2017 had committed at graduation to a four-year college or university, 10% to a two-year college (including NVCC), and 6% were going into the military, taking a gap year, getting additional vocational training, or directly entering the job market. I'd assume the stats for the Class of 2018 weren't too different.

TJ’s class of 2018 was super impressive. Even more so than last year.

It is impressive. But last years class was considered unusually weak. This year’s class is considered to be on the strong side.

TJ had no kids report UC Berkley, though, down from 11 (although, like the other HSs, this is self report. About 50 kids are missing). Interested to hear if other HSs had any kids going to Berkley. Purely selfish motivations. My DC2 is at her base school, not TJ, and badly wants Berkley. Is the new. UC cap on OOS admissions making getting in nearly impossible?

Not impossible at all. I suspect when the Naviance data comes out, this data will tell you. The fact is, the UCs and Berkeley in particular is crazy crowded and the quality of life has deteriorated. Especially for OOS students, why pay the ridiculous price tag?

This was my biggest concern with UC-Berkeley (all of the UC schools, really) and why I’m glad my kid decided not to apply (even tho I’m a very proud alum). The fiscal crisis in California has made the UC schools - like you said - way too crowded, many, many majors are impacted meaning your kid may not get to major in what they want, and even if they do, they generally need to plan for the potential of taking more than 4 years to graduate, even if it’s not their fault (ie took a full class load every semester, didn’t fail any classes, etc.).

I don’t know if that’s the reason no one from TJ is going, but that was our reasoning.

It's "Berkeley" not Berkley...drives me nuts.

Okay spelling nazi. Noted. Do you have an answer. Or are you just correcting spelling?

Not meaning to to snarky, but McLean likely does not have a 100% college attendance rate. How many kids did not report because they are not attending?

Where is the Marshall data published? I have a junior at Marshall who hasn’t seen it.

No W&M disclosed? Seem odd.
