What"s Up With Grades

Very competitive schools generally do a very job of letting colleges know their profile. The profile would have all AP, honor courses offered, and grade distribution. My daughter’s school doesn’t rank, but by looking at her transcript you would get a pretty good idea what percentile she is in. Her school CC also speaks with most of college’s admission rep about their applicants. In Feb and early March they will find out how their applicants are doing and give any additional color on the applicants. I wouldn’t be surprised if the conversation includes, “If you admit this applicant, I think he will very likely attend.”
