<p>"1. University of Michigan and Michigan State University about 100 of the 200 kids in my graduating class went to one of the two. (~65 to state, ~50 to UM, I believe)
2. Western Michigan, for kids who are very close to a 3.0, okay students, but aren't very focused on school (western has a lot of hot women and a big party scene)
3. Central Michigan, mainly kids who didn't get into western.
4. Eastern Michigan, for kids who want to stay near home."</p>
<p>We have almost the exact same thing. Our graduating classes are usually around 70, and maybe:</p>
<ul>
<li>6 to 8 go to Michigan</li>
<li>6 to 10 go to State</li>
<li>3 to 5 go to Wayne</li>
<li>3 to 5 go to Western</li>
<li>a few go to Central or Eastern (although these aren't nearly as popular)</li>
<li>3 to 5 go to Albion/Adrian/Aquinas/Alma</li>
<li>3 to 5 go to Kalamazoo</li>
</ul>
<p>and the rest go to prestigious schools, the most popular:</p>
<ul>
<li>a LOT go to WashU (3 this year, out of 43 kids)</li>
<li>a LOT go to Harvard (they love us; 3 this year go there but we haven't had a Yale acceptance in 5 years)</li>
<li>a few go to Brown, Cornell, Boston College</li>
<li>a few go to BU</li>
<li>a few go to U of Chicago</li>
</ul>
<p>Are you in Pinckney by chance?</p>
<p>competitive nyc public school but mostly CUNY's - some out of state only 1 or 2 ivies or top schools.</p>
<p>Northwest suburbs of Chicago.
1.Harper Community College.
2.University of Illinois(Urbana-Champaign)</p>
<p>Northern NJ, avg SAT 1340:</p>
<p>Villanova
Loyola MD (<^- almost all of the kids toward the bottom of the grade go to one of these two or Fairfield)
Notre Dame/BC/Fairfield</p>
<p>rural north bay, CA. Largely low-income student body. Avg SAT = 1140 M/V.</p>
<p>The very, very top of the class (the valedictorian down to #7 or so) tends to go to Berkeley. This year only 2 kids are going there though, that's kind of an anomaly for my school.</p>
<p>This year 6 or 7 kids are going to Santa Cruz, that's about the usual amount. UCSC gets the smart kids who are kind of chill and funky and are smart but not nec. the very top of the class. </p>
<p>About 4 each year go to Santa Barbara. Those are the really smart kids near the top of the class who didn't get in/apply to Berkeley and/or LOOOVE to party. </p>
<p>About 5 kids each year go to Sonoma State because it's the local CSU. Some choose to live in a dorm, some live at home to save money. SSU gets the kids who get good grades but want to save money. SSU tends to get our few Mexican students who meet CSU/UC requirements (i.e., not a lot of ESL classes) because it's cheap and they can still be close to their families. </p>
<p>Between 2-5 kids go to San Francisco State. Those are the funky kids who are okay students.</p>
<p>About the same amount go to Humboldt State. Those are the more hippie-ish funky kids who tend to be slackers and either #1 don't care where they go as long as they get out of here, #2 want to go smoke pot in the redwoods, and/or #3 want to study Marine Biology because apparently that's one of their really good programs.</p>
<p>Same amount go to San Diego State. Those tend to be the kids who are smart but not the top of the class, like the sunny weather all the time, like to party. </p>
<p>Almost noone goes to LACs or private schools. If they do, though, every few years someone will go to Reed (they recruit here), and last year someone went to Chapman and now this year TWO people are. I'm not sure what's so great about the place but hey, whatever floats your boat. </p>
<p>This year 4 kids are going to UCLA but that's extremely unusual. Usually no one applies there or no one gets in. Not many people at my school like SoCal very much (except SDSU & UCSB, I guess). </p>
<p>There's usually 240 kids in a class here, and out of those probably 200 of them plan to go to Santa Rosa JC to save $$$ and usually plan to transfer after 2 years. Of the remaining 40, 3 go to a JC elsewhere, 3 go to local trade schools, 14 aren't going to school and are just going to work, and 20 go straight to a 4-year college.</p>
<p>My school is really good, but people just don't have the money and aren't nec. aware of good LACs that could give them lots of scholarships. The kids tend to apply for every scholarship they can get, though, and the SRJC gives anyone who has a 3.0 or above at any HS in Sonoma County a $1,000 JC scholarship, which is also why a lot of kids choose that option.</p>

<p>Nah, Dexter.</p>
<p>A competitive public school in MD. Most go to:</p>
<p>University of Maryland
James Madison
UMBC
Penn State
Community College</p>
<p>We have about 4-5 going to NYU the last time I checked (a couple of waitlists, though, so that number might grow), one to Northwestern, one to Princeton, one to Vanderbilt, one to Emory, one to Duke, one to USC, one to Swarthmore, and one to MIT. (I'm sure there are more, but I just don't remember off the top of my head)</p>
<p>And although this year was an exception, in the past, we've generally sent about 3-4 to MIT, a couple to Harvard, and a couple to Stanford. This year just sucked for a lot of people, and a lot of people turned down top schools (such as Caltech, for example) in favor of UMD just because they didn't get into HYPM.</p>
<p>Average high school in Northern NJ. About 350 per class</p>
<p>County College of Morris- 35
Penn Stae- 16
Rutgers- 12
NYU- 7
West Virginia- 7 (kind of random, no?)
Cornell- 5</p>
<p>Our graduating classes are usually around 80-90 people.</p>
<p>This year, we had 5 go to Texas (28/32 accepted), 5 to Georgetown (7/10), 4 to Emory (14/18), 4 to UPenn (5/16), 4 to Dartmouth (6/14). I think those were the most common.</p>
