<p>We sent both val and sal last year to Harvard. Also sent at least one guy to Princeton and two to MIT and several more to Dartmouth, Cornell, Columbia, NWestern, etc.</p>
<p>For such a middling public high school, we send lots of grads to high places.</p>
<p>2-iron, you took the words out of my mouth, even though I wouldn’t call it middling.</p>
<p>Our school has multiple val’s.
One of them is going to Princeton, the rest are going to state schools (although I’m not sure where else they were accepted).</p>
<p>Valedictorian last year got into U Penn, the rest in the top 10 all went to state schools, same with most of the valedictorians from previous years. This year’s val may be going to an ivy though, he seems smarter than most.</p>
<p>crazy. last year’s is just going to pitt.</p>
<p>val: UPenn
sal: UPenn
rest of top 10 to other ivies and top 10 schools</p>
<p>Val- Yale
Sal- Carnegie Mellon
6/top 10 went to UF</p>
<p>Seven Vals at a large public high school: </p>
<p>Northwestern, Grinnell, Swarthmore, Princeton, UH, Mt. Holyoke, Harvard</p>
<p>old high school valedictorian: brown plme</p>
<p>new high school doesnt rank: but sent 50+ kids to ivy league/mit/caltech/berkely/washu/duke/uchicago</p>
<p>top few went to…
Dartmouth, MIT, Berkeley, Amherst.</p>
<p>i think we’ve had one person in the last 10 years go to Caltech (OOS) as well lewl.</p>
<p>Last year:
Val: Harvard (full ride for lacrosse confirmed in early October-I didn’t know they did that, but she didn’t even apply…they wanted her that bad)
Sal: Johns Hopkins</p>
<p>Year before:
Val: UNH
Sal: MIT</p>
<p>Those two years are slight oddities though-for the most part the val/sal/top decile tend to go to schools such as BC, Northeastern, and UNH (because everyone at my school seems to go to UNH)</p>
<p>sigh. i guess some HS’s are just amazing at producing brilliant kids who to go HPY and the alike</p>
<p>Past 5 valedictorians:
Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Harvard, Harvard in that order</p>
<p>I’m valedictorian this year, so…that trend’s gonna get broken, lol.</p>

<p>The vals at the small public schools in our part of NYS generally get accepted to and attend Cornell CALS. I don’t know if there is any sort of guarantee of admission or not but I can’t think of a time when Cornell has turned down one of the local vals in recent history.</p>

07- brown(ed), wes
06- princeton (brown ed, defer>reject), princeton(ed)
05- mit, harvard</p>
