<p>What I neglected to address in my earlier post, is your son’s high school’s relationship with U of Chicago. My child’s school was a large public suburban high school which generally has 2 or three students a year accepted to Chicago. I was told by a Chicago admissions officer at an on campus parent’s weekend reception that the students from her high school have done exceptionally well at Chicago and therefore they have a lot of respect for the quality of the education at her high school and will therefore give more respect to a 3.5 from there than maybe somewhere else. So do make sure that Chicago is getting a true picture of the quality of your son’s school and the rigor of the courses there. Also, do you know if any students have attended Chicago in the past and how they have done there, or are perceived of at the school?</p>
