I appreciate the perspective and intent, and recognize that is really the point of forums like these. In reading through so many forums, groups, and threads about admissions, my observation is that typically it’s parents of children with “high achieving” students who post stats. Parents of students whose results may not appear as high achieving tend not to share stats. So it can discourage a more diverse applicant pool. Each school’s published Common Data Set has been very helpful in understanding GPA and score distribution for admitted classes. Stats shared on forum threads are anecdotal. I just don’t want parents and prospective students to be discouraged based on a handful of stats posted in any forum or group, so am trying to provide readers with a broader perspective. Thank you for the time you’ve spent on this!
