<p>LOL this thread almost makes going to Harvard sounds like the chosen path for vals.</p>
<p>I have no idea who my school's valedictorian was. Nor the "Sal".</p>
<p>Then again, my school didn't rank. So we probably didn't have a "Val" or "Sal".</p>
<p>'08- Stanford
'07- Tufts, Brown (two that year)
'06- Stanford</p>
<p>'08 - went to Columbia, he really wasn't well-known at all or even that smart for that matter, I think he had a legacy status.
'07 - tri-valedictorians, 1 went to Princeton, the other University of Pennsylvania, and the other University of Chicago
'06 - Harvard
'05 - Harvard</p>
<p>06 - Stanford / MIT (2 vals)
07 - Princeton
08 - Yale
09 - we'll see soon enough</p>
<p>'06 - Duke
'07 - UNC Chapel Hill
'08 - UNC Chapel Hill
'09 - We will see where I get accepted. ;)</p>
<p>We had like 6 vals... one of the vals went to JHU..and the sal got into harvard..amazing the sal wasn't involved in anything at all..except for the school mag and on the school board...go figure.</p>
<p>The others in the top ten went to Tufts and MIT.And I think some random person who graduated with highest honors got into UMich.</p>
<p>uhm last year she went to UTD. 07' went to Vanderbilt. 06' IDK. but i think whoever was ranked 5 in 07' went to Notre Dame</p>
<p>'07 - NYU, I think?
'08 - SUNY Brockport
'09 - We're not sure where he wants to go; he doesn't seem like the sort to go Ivy, because he's hardly even taken any honors classes and is very humble. Hmmm.</p>
<p>'07-UPenn (Sals went to Brown and Yale)
'08-MIT (Sals were both deferred then rejected from Stanford, both ended up attending Duke.)</p>
<p>'08 Val: UW-Richland Center (A 2 year)...what a waste
'08 Sal: UW-Madison</p>
<p>'07 Val: Macalester
'07 Sal: UW-Madison</p>
<p>Last year was Harvard, the year before, I think Northwestern, and before that Kenyon.</p>
<p>last year was Udel</p>
<p>this year, I don't know where I'm going yet ;)</p>
<p>09 - will probably be going to harvard or uchicago - he will get into both, i would bet a lot of money on it.</p>
<p>08 - uChicago</p>
<p>07 - u of Minn (don't know why... good school, got a full ride)</p>
<p>08Val - Penn State
08Sal - Columbia</p>
<p>07Val - Richmond
07Sal - Rice</p>
<p>06Val - Swarthmore
06Sal - Duke</p>
<p>Always seems like the the Sal is smarter than Val.</p>
<p>08 went to WashU.
07 chose Carleton over Yale. At the time, I was scratching my head at her decision, but now I understand completely (hence my ED Carleton application).</p>
<p>The local community college, then dropped out.</p>
<p>Harvard and Harvard.</p>
<p>We had 3 vals last year, and they went to:</p>
<ol>
<li>University of Minnesota- Twin Cities</li>
<li>Anoka/Ramsey Community College</li>
<li>Winona State University</li>
</ol>
<p>UPenn- 07
Princeton for both Val and Sal- 08</p>
