Maybe wait until May or June. Most of the kids haven't posted yet and probably won't because they like there privacy. Others simply haven't made a decision yet.

How would anyone know the answer to this? Unless your kid was very close friends with someone and know their parents’ life story.

It's quite easy to figure this out if you even remotely know the families. I mean, clearly, lawyers, doctors, teachers, nurses, engineers, journalists and on and on all went to college.

Close to zero. May very well be zero.

Do you have the breakdown?

I don’t think 20 kids are going to ivy. More like 15, but some were admitted to multiple ivies.

15 is still an excellent number. Well done Sidwell!

Greater than 15, less than 20 is what my DC told me. Not counting individuals admitted to multiple Ivies. lets say 17.5

Do you know how many of these Ivy/Stanford acceptances were from ED/REA? How many from regular decision?

Roughly: 1/3 ED, 2/3 RD

NP. Mostly Legacy/Athlete/URM

No way. there must be at least a few that aren't in these buckets?

Many/most are not in those buckets.

Not true. The vast majority are legacy/athlete/urm.

I know people in these buckets try to spread the rumor. Their purpose is to discourage kids with top stats but not in those buckets in the same school with their kids to not apply the very top schools. The goal is to increase their kids’ chance.

Maybe. But facts are facts: This year the vast majority are definitely legacy/athlete/urm. One may not recognize legacy quite as easily -- you don't know the families.

Why? They are second semester seniors and anonymous people are on this thread judging them while having zero idea what their story is or why they made the college choices they did.

If anything is sad, it is a 70+ page on an anonymous forum where a bunch of adults are judging children.

End of thread.

Oh yes? Please elaborate ?

You can see all the results on instagram, at least until this point.

The Instagram isn’t really that impressive.

A lot of the kids don’t want to post bc they know they are being judged. They read DCUM too in the senior center and laugh.

This. And many of them post here to troll.

That is sad

Actually, the athletes are mostly not going to top 10 or 20.
