+1,000. Nor match. "Reach for (nearly) Everyone" category for sure. Doesn't mean OPs kid won't get in, just means those schools have more top stats applicants than they can accept.

At that GPA and SAT I’m not sure that is relevant...


Yeah it is. At a top private, those are Ivy/Williams/Amherst stats.


Exactly. A 3.93 GPA from Sidwell means you’re probably in the top of the class and you will end up at ivy.


A 3.93 GPA in a magnet school means about average or below.


With a 1570 sat? Okay. Remember OP said it’s unweighted.


Yeah. Coming from a Blair Magnet/TJ equivalent would be on par with a top private today. A kid with nearly perfect grades and SAT scores should do well with good execution and extracurriculars.

Agree with Michigan and Emory and would add UT-Austin, Rice, Northwestern, and Cornell.
