<p>ok there are like 75 valedictorians at my school, but the one ranked #1 was accepted at
Georgia Tech
Tulane
UC Berkeley</p>
<p>Rejected at
Caltech
MIT</p>
<p>awwww both kids going to the same college ?</p>
<p>My class' valedictorian is going to Brown</p>
<p>is your valedictorian normally the person who goes to the "best" college? cuz at my school, it's not (although it is usually by their personal choice). </p>
<p>2005: valedictorian (berkeley) vs others (stanford, cornell, northwestern)
2004: valedictorian (UCLA) vs others (caltech)
2003: three valedictorians (UCLA, USC, UCSD) vs others (stanford, west point)
2002: valedictorian (UCLA) vs others (stanford x2, penn, dartmouth)
2001: valedictorian (UC Riverside) vs others (?)</p>
<p>must be a recent phenomenon cuz before that, the valedictorians chose "better" schools.</p>
<p>valedictorian this year : UT-Austin (don't know acceptances)</p>
<p>Last year: Harvard (accepted to Harvard, MIT,Princeton)<----Super Asian kid</p>
<p>Year before last : Duke (don't know acceptances)</p>
<p>well there are just so many other factors such as who gives the most money and so forth...</p>
<p>the valedictorian at my school didnt pick MIT because "they are a bunch of geeks" and he "would be the coolest guy on campus" which I guess says a lot since hes kind of antisocial lol. He didn't pick Princeton because "they are basically preps." Well, thats what he said, but it's probably deeper than that...lol he has his reasons...</p>
<p>It does seem to be true though, the valedictorian from last year thought the Princeton kids were erally stuck-up, preppy rich kids when he visited...</p>
<p>He did go to Harvard, but i think the people over there was a big turn off for him</p>
<p>Valedictorian got accepted into....
USC
LMU
Cal Poly
Rochester
She is attending Rochester</p>
<p>mine got like the top 10 award for the united states academically or something</p>
<p>he's hella crazy</p>
<p>perfect everything
everything everythinggggg</p>
<p>lives in misosuri
is goingo to the university of ALABAMA.</p>
<p>full ride + 9000 cash + a free laptop</p>
<p>stupid...
he could have gone to harvard.</p>
<p>my graduating class has six valedictorians. They will be attending the following colleges...</p>
<ol>
<li>Stanford </li>
<li>Stanford </li>
<li>UC Berkeley (also got accepted to Cornell University)</li>
<li>UC Berekely</li>
<li>UC Berekeley</li>
<li>UC Berkeley</li>
</ol>
<p>Aside from the valedictorians, several students from my graduating class also got admitted to stanford and berkeley.</p>
<p>Last year: ECU (nobody has quite figured this one out)
This year: Duke</p>
<p>2005: 3 Valedictorians- WUSTL, Duke, Stanford
2004: 2 Valedictorians- WUSTL, and UIUC</p>
<p>We have co-valedictorians, and they both got into the same schools:
- UC Berkeley
- UC San Diego
- one got into UCLA (the other one didn't apply)
- UC Davis</p>
<p>Both of them decided on Davis. My high school's very UC-centric. Neither of them applied to privates at all, so I don't think the two of them can accurately reflect the student body in terms of college acceptance. (Someone was accepted at Wellesley, and another accepted at NYU; neither are in top 5%)</p>
<p>Our val this year was accepted ED to the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. We're all super proud of him :)</p>
<p>Valedictorian- going to Dartmouth (the Val from my school has ended up at Dartmouth for the past 3 years!). Wanted Yale, but she got deferred EA and rejected later.</p>
<p>lol i know our val is lurking around reading this right now but ill post it anyway
1. Yale
2. Yale
3. SUNY Stonybrook
the rest of my class is unranked but the top kids are going to MIT, Columbia, about 10 to Cornell, Dartmouth, Georgetown, UPENN, Duke, and me to Stanford.</p>
<p>valedictorian-going to berkeley(i think) full ride
rejected from all ivies except cornell
got into all UCs, northwestern, university of chicago, cornell...</p>
<p>2003: Harvard (sal to Stanford)
2004: Yale (sal to Harvard)
2005: technically unknown, but we know who its gonna be, hes going to Dartmouth (rejected from Princeton, waitlisted at Yale, accepted at Duke and some other schools)</p>
<p>Princeton kids are preppy, but not stuck up. yale and harvard kids are more arrogant. penn and princeton have the most down-to-earth kids of the ivy league. (perhaps those vals mentioned were turned off by the extensive collar-popping, but ironically the biggest facebook group is People Against Popped Collars)</p>
<p>I'm HS class of '03 and don't know who is first in the current class.</p>
<p>Our '02 and '04 went to Pitt.</p>
<p>I was '03 and went to Ithaca College. The only other schools I applied to were Penn State, Ohio University, and Duquesne. I was accepted to all three. I really knew nothing about colleges when I was applying. I had a 1380 SAT, was a tri-athlete, and had a lead in a school play. I also did some other activities. I knew a kid who swam at IC I liked their journalism program and was going to swim there. I got wrapped up in the journalism activities and didn't end up swimming. Now I'm transferring to UVA (turning down WashU (business), NYU (econ, should've applied to Stern, but I didn't), and UNC) for business barring a miracle acceptance by Wharton.</p>
<p>The '03 Sal went to Penn State.</p>
<p>Not very many people move onto out-of-state schools where I'm from. Really the only first/second-tier schools that really get talked about are Pitt and Penn State, occasionally Carnegie Mellon. I rarely, if ever, hear anyone talk about UPenn. Our guidance counselors are not very good. Luckily I've learned a lot about admissions during my transfer application process. Hopefully my brother ('06) listens to what I have to say. He should be first or second in his class.</p>
<p>val = princeton
sal = cornell</p>
