this whole process is so stressful, i wish they told all us about all the schools the same day.

Best of luck!
Banneker Key is highly selective. Expect some good results on ivy day.


thank you

I think big state school honors programs just extend the invite if your stats are over a certain threshold.

The private school admits are more "holistic" - which is code for cryptic and unpredictable. Your kid will definitely get into one of these awesome schools with those stats.

I don’t understand this either. Would love more of an explanation and details there.

Congratulations!! Can you check back in when the rest of the schools come in for those of us with kids with similar profiles (I think gender matters a lot for MIT outcomes).
Btw, I admire your daughter's approach to applications.
