<p>This is probably what you’re looking for…</p>
<p>[Naviance</a> results for Northwestern from highly competitive IL public high school](<a href=“https://connection.naviance.com/family-connection/colleges/scattergram]Naviance”>https://connection.naviance.com/family-connection/colleges/scattergram) </p>
<p>Select Northwestern University from the drop-down list and then sort by unweighted GPA and SAT-2400 scale (or ACT although results are clearer using SAT-2400 scale).</p>
<p>As you can see, Northwestern does not turn away a lot of 4.0 GPAs from tippy-top public schools. Obviously you need to keep the grades up and get ACT/SAT scores in their range. But if you do indeed go to the top public high school in Illinois it is not likely that you will be rejected by Northwestern if you maintain that 4.0 GPA.</p>
<p>Good Luck</p>
