[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make sure her work ethic remains strong as she continues through schooling. Getting good merit aid comes down to class rank, GPA, and test scores. You cannot report an IQ score to get merit scholarships. As a GT student she'll likely excel at standardized testing, but it'll be the atmosphere you create for her at home that will determine her motivation to excel. I know too many extremely bright students who found high school to be above them and did not give it much effort. They got close to perfect scores on the SAT, but their GPA was far too low for any top university (let alone merit aid).[/quote] Agree. [/quote]
