[quote=Anonymous]OP, based on your posts I think your child is in good shape, especially because he is applying in an off-year. There are a remarkable number of people who post that their children are in the mid- to high- 90's and it seems to me that either they are the only ones posting or perhaps their post is not quite accurate in terms of score. In other words, the 75% range is more than respectable and if your son applied to 3 or 4 schools then your child most likely will be accepted at 2 or 3 of them, if not all of them. A few years ago one of our daughters had a much lower overall percentile, was applying for high school and she was accepted at all the schools to which she applied, including the most competitive schools in the area. Good luck and I know it is hard to do but try not to sweat it too much. If you really feel pressed, though, take some of the other posters' advice re contacting schools/coaches/the like or expanding your parameters.[/quote]
