Enroll them in the worst private school in the DMV?
Nice.
Would rather do that then have my daughter grind at NCS and be told BC, UVA, etc are off the table because they have a 3.8
I agree. That’s insane!
As someone previously posted, they aren’t off the table… they just require ED.
You shouldn’t have to ED to get into your state flagship. Disappointing that UVA relies on ED. Most top public schools do not have ED.
But seriously, who applies to state schools anyway?

It’s not that troubling that Ivy+ schools are only available to the top of the class at NCS. What’s worse is that this is also the case for the rest of the top 40, which middle of the pack students have had more luck with in the past.

It would be interesting if they had a version where only legacies were listed on SCOIR.

I don’t think they remove URM from SCOIR. Does anyone know for sure? They definitely remove legacy admits. Of course, many times the legacy admits are also URM.

Maybe I misread this thread in terms of who is in your SCOIR dataset. I mean, don’t those groups cover a very significant portion of the class? And then by excluding them you are left with how many kids? Say ten athletes are recruited, plus 15 URMs (conservatively), plus 15 legacies? That gets you down to almost half the class and the you are left with only admitting top students which isn’t really a shocker to me.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing.
These is myopic navel gazing to the extreme and useless for drawing any conclusions.
There were 2 recruited athletes (D3). 6 URM. A small handful of legacies.
