My son's school EA data to S

Thanks Weston to share your thoughts.

I create a new posting on this because it is a mystery to me why admission data of my local school is unreasonale.  Maybe other schools or parents have similar experience and can share some light .......

Every year about 3 get into S through regular admission. For ~5 years, no one got in through EA. Not sure if any of the 3 was deferred or all EA were rejected.

Even the high school teachers and counselors recommend 12th graders think hard about this before they apply to S. One year, a kid with Gold Metal from International XXX Olympia was rejected (NOT DEFERRED). He thought he would be in for sure! He is a wonderful student, later got admission from all other IVYs and MIT.

While S admit so many students in EA, the record of EA from this high school is just bad somehow.
