Thanks, everyone-- don't know how many students are "eligible" but estimating a reasonably normalized distribution and going by the median that they claim for admits, it's about 600-800 "eligible" students in the pool. Realistically, DD is probably in the top 100 of those. smile



Oh-- and same day, the Navy recruiter called her about service academy/ROTC. She could have just mentioned that she was only 14... but took a different approach by politely informing the recruiter that she is "ineligible to join any branch of the armed forces due to a disqualifying medical condition." There was clear disappointment on the other end of the line, and DD had a moment of no small amount of schadenfreude, I could see, because she regards that list of automatic medical DQ's as being the most ridiculous thing ever. Just figured I'd share that one for the other 2e parents here, who might appreciate it.
