Thanks whistle pig.....What we learned was that college admissions is such a crap shoot.... My DD had those 5's on the AP's and her friend got 3's and a 4 ( same AP's), other wise they were basically neck and neck. Her friend is a super kid as well.
I am kinda glad she was rejected at BU, as she applied to 11 colleges, accepted at 8 ( merit$ at 3), W/L at 3 ( we declined the W/L's), and it was very hard for her to narrow it down ( esp with merit money on the table). We ultimately told her to pick the college of her dreams, not to let money enter in the picture, so she picked the most expensive
and the most prestigious college. So, I am not really going to be broke anymore but plum broke...
Like I said college admissions are so unpredictable.....I am glad we are so over this process
