I was able to have a nice strategy call with my D24’s SC and she gave me some very interesting tid bits that I found very helpful. She let us know that increased rigor and increased grades every year is a huge plus in the application and that she is going to highlight that in the application. She also mentioned that the school is rated/viewed by most “top schools” as a tier 1 school and the rigor is automatically noted. She also mentioned that a full load of advanced classes and a great start to sr year is paramount which is great news in our situation. All of this was a huge relief and very informative. Communication with counselors early and often is so crucial.
