AP classes for elite academic schools [as a potential athletic recruit at an elite high school]

Even without a designated college counselor, the school likely maintains a database (accessible by any member of the administration or counseling staff) which shows who gets in where. This is not rocket science. There will be some fuzz-- kids with a particular profile sometimes get in here, sometimes don’t; there will be a couple of anomalous admits (kid had first novel published and then optioned for a Hollywood screenplay which trumped middling scores), but most of the time it’s clear what it takes to get into each place.
