Me again. I think it also depends on what classes the kid took to get the A-/B+. My kid has 13 APs/DEs including Calc 3, so did take a rigorous courseload. My husband and I also went to VT.

Where else has you child applied/been accepted?

Weird time of year to be asking this.

If they want LAC: Dickinson, SMCM, Conn, Juniata.

Large publics might include Pitt, Penn State or U of Delaware.

+1. Especially if you are full pay.

Tulane, Wake Forest, SMU, Bucknell, U Miami, Syracuse

Wake Forest doesn’t belong in this group, their acceptance rate is going to be around 15 percent this year.

Where are the A-/B+ students applying? Good kids with good stats, but not the brainiacs?

Did your son apply ED?

Mind sharing DC's GPA (UW/W), SAT/ACT and ECs? Thanks!

+1 Also check with VCU, GMU, Mary Wash, ODU, Radford. See where late apps will be accepted if past the deadline. If VT is desired, start at Radford then transfer.
